Today I’ll be taking a quick look at
the BTA-3210 Micro USB Bluetooth Adapter from Cirago. It is a very
simple dongle that can give Bluetooth capability to laptops or
computers without built-in Bluetooth functions. There isn’t a heck
of a lot one can say about a device this straightforward, but let’s
take a look at how well it functions and what it looks like.
With all of the products out there
today that use BlueTooth I can’t figure out why more desktop computer
systems don’t come standard with it, or even motherboards with it,
most laptops do, but not all. So you’ve got to go and buy a special
adapter to enable BlueTooth on your computer if you wish to enable
this functionality with your devices.
Today for review I’ve got a very small
solution to that problem from our friends at USBFever,
it’s called the World’s
Slimmest USB Bluetooth Dongle, and while I’m not sure if it’s the
World’s Slimmest it is very, very small, about the size of a
quarter, so it will fit anywhere and you won’t have some ugly big USB
Dongle sticking out of your computer to enable BT functionality. So
continue on for a quick look at a great option to enable BT on your
computers…
Bluetooth is a wireless format that has almost taken on a life of its’ own, it has become extremely popular and is very useful. Pretty much every where you go you’ll see some sort of Bluetooth device in use, the most popular use of course being with cellphones and their wireless headsets, I see people all the time with headsets attached to their heads like little warts on their ears…
Bluetooth is a lot more than just for cellphones though, you can easily connect two or more computers together to create your own little wireless network to share data between them. You can find headphones and even printers that are Bluetooth enabled, and numerous other devices as well.
Today for review I’ve got what is probably the world’s smallest Bluetooth USB adapter, it’s not much bigger than a dime, and that’s only because of the USB part of it, the actual Bluetooth chip is a fraction of the overall size. It’s called the Super Mini Bluetooth v2.0 + EDR USB Adapter, but don’t let it’s diminutive size fool you, it’s fully loaded, being Bluetooth v2.0 with Enhanced Data Rate it allows for longer range and faster file transfers.
One thing I’ve always loved about technology is that as it advances things just seem to get smaller and smaller. Take cellphones for example, remember the first cellphones? They were carried in briefcase like cases that weighed upwards of 30lbs, this was supposed to be portable, now cellphones weigh in at grams instead of pounds or kilograms. Today for review I have a Bluetooth USB dongle that is so tiny, and thin that you could carry it in your wallet if you wanted to, it is called the USB Bluetooth Chip and it was provided by Brando Workshop for review today. Read on to learn my thoughts and experiences of it…
