Bluetake i-Phono BT420EX review
Reviews The hardware comprises two key elements: a set of headphones, and what Bluetake calls an ‘audio dongle’. The only other feature on the dongle is a pause button that's surrounded by a blue flashing light when transmitting.

SonicWALL TZ 210 review
Reviews The USB ports at the front of the TZ 210 can be used to add a 3G wireless dongle or an analogue modem. At the front, you also get two USB ports for a 3G wireless dongle and/or to connect to an analogue modem to further boost WAN bandwidth and...

ASUS Eee PC 1008HA review
Reviews The VGA output uses a dongle, the Ethernet jack is angled to fit into the thin body, there's a custom-moulded (non-removable) battery, and an LED display shaves a few millimetres off the lid. Helping shave a little size from the system are space...

Sierra Compass 885 USB Modem review
Reviews Normally when you sign up to a mobile broadband service, your provider will supply you with a USB dongle or a data card. Otherwise you have to pay for your dongle or data card separately. Of course, network coverage is by no means perfect, and...

Sony VAIO VGN-BZ11MN review
Reviews There is no native support for 3G data communications, although this is easily added via a USB dongle. Our own 3G modem dongle (a Vodafone USB Stick) obscures the port next to it for all but the smallest of connectors, for example.

Photos: new Windows 7 notebooks review
Reviews There's a fashionable pre-boot OS, but it has a minimalist set of ports (even the Ethernet port is on a USB dongle) and lacks both an expansion slot and an integrated optical drive. Ports xUSB 2.0, HDMI, RJ-45 (via USB dongle), audio

Microsoft Optical Desktop Elite for Bluetooth review
Reviews Adding Bluetooth to your PC is as simple as inserting the bundled USB transceiver dongle into a vacant port -- but unlike with RF wireless devices, pairing the keyboard and mouse with your system calls for a little more effort.

Nokia SU-1B Digital Pen review
Reviews Unfortunately the Digital Pen cannot yet connect to a desktop Bluetooth dongle. The Digital Pen measures 149mm by 23mm by 20mm and weighs 35g, so it’s still bulkier than the average biro. Three discreet white LEDs on the top of the barrel betray...

HP iPAQ Pocket PC H3950 review
Reviews We have no major complaints about either, but if you want to recharge your iPAQ on the road, you'll need to attach a small, easy-to-lose dongle to the end of the power cord in order to adapt it to the device's port.

Sony VAIO X505 review
Reviews Sony also throws in a dongle that does double duty providing inputs for LAN and VGA monitor connections. The charcoal and silver VAIO X505 is the slimmest ultraportable on the market. Measuring 25.9cm wide and 20.8cm deep, the VAIO X505 is a...

PalmOne Tungsten T5 review
Reviews In a new twist, the USB dongle features a one-touch button to activate a HotSync operation, and there's also a slot to attach the power cable. Design Elegant' and 'sexy' are two words that come to mind when looking at the Tungsten T5.

HP iPAQ Pocket PC H1910 review
Reviews To cut costs, HP doesn't include a cradle, just a cable that does double duty as a charging and synchronisation cord when used with the attached dongle. Design We're impressed that HP has managed to reduce the size of the H1910 without shrinking...

Sony CLIE PEG-TH55 review
Reviews To keep you in sync and powered up, the TH55 comes with a USB cable and a power cable, both of which connect through the dongle that clips to the bottom of the device. Design At 7.3cm wide by 12.1cm deep by 1.57cm high, the elegant, dark-grey CLIE...

Polycom Communicator review
Reviews A better, cheaper and more flexible solution may be to buy a Bluetooth dongle and headset pair: this won't have the quality, but it will ensure reliable communication in difficult conditions. Or so thinks veteran videoconferencing company Polycom.

Mitac Mio 558 review
Reviews This icon also lets you activate ‘the USB Dongle’ mode -- a clever function whereby the Mio 558 can act as a wireless adapter for non-connected computers. The Mio 558 is a nicely designed device. Its overall dimensions are close to the average, at...

Compaq iPAQ H3870 Pocket PC review
Reviews To recharge your handheld on the road, you now need to attach a little dongle onto the end of the power cord to adapt it to the port on the device. The Bluetooth radio is hidden in the black plastic protrusion above the reflective TFT display...

MoGo Mouse BT review
Reviews You can add Bluetooth to a notebook cheaply and easily if a USB port is available for a dongle, although that then becomes another travel bag item. Design When not in use, the MoGo Mouse BT is a thin, flat object that's precisely the right size to...
