HUGE bang for the buck

Got this on sale for $130 to use at a friend's vacation home. Rivals my $300+ Samsung monitor. So wound up buying 2 more to replace some other monitors.

Bought this case for $15 right when I bought my iPhone 6+. Not a long term case but was not going to leave a store with a $500 phone unprotected. Great value to protect the corners while I stalk the ultimate case.

Great way to add Bluetooth to older A/V

Verified Purchase:Yes
Added this to an older Bose Wave system. Great addition! Docked it one star as I've had to reset it a couple of times (unplug from power) when syncing to a couple of devices. But once paired, rock steady stable. Will likely be buying another for adding to some other receivers.

Upgrading from an older Kindle. Wow. Lighter. Crisper text is an understatement. Throw in the lighting and the new interface for page advancement. Pricey but if you want the best, you won't be disappointed.

Handy dandy dongle on a Surface
on November 9, 2014
Posted by: BradmanTX
from San Antonio, TX
Verified Purchase:Yes
Using this to make a single plug and play connection on my Surface. So with it I can plug in hard Cat-5 and take advantage of my 1Gigabit switch, run the monitor (VGA not HDMI) and preserve the USB 3.0 capability. Haven't really tested the latter. But so far so good. Biggest draw for me was preserving the USB 3 ( and not 2!) while acting as a Cat-5 adapter for the LAN. no problems with the associated software/drivers on Win 8.1

Perfect add for a Surface Pro 3

Added this to my Surface. Allows me portability of music and video files without filling up the main HDD with personal stuff. Fast access speed means it acts like a second 128Gb hard drive just fine. Watch for sales - I paid $120 for mine in Fall of 2014.

I bought two more of these to go with my Surface Pro 3. One for home office, one for main office and one that travels with me. It it tiny, well engineered and even has a USB port integrated into the "brick" portion. Just a bit pricey is all.

Very good monitor for the bucks
on November 9, 2014
Posted by: BradmanTX

Verified Purchase:Yes
Great feature set and the monitor itself is superb. What holds it back from 5 star is the lack of adjustability in the stand and in the control/joystick mechanism on the back. These aren't a problem, just not ideal. But if you want to pay $150 more to fix those, go right ahead. I'm satisfied as is. So wait for it to be on sale (seemingly every other month) and then purchase aay.

Super little dongle!

Bought one of these so I can use my new Surface Pro 3 to drive VGA monitors and projectors. Flawless! Including having the adapter have a bevel in the plug so that it fits in to accommodate the Surface's outer case. Great little product and not a total rip-off. I've used it so far with multiple monitors, several TV's and plenty of projectors.

can device be pass key protected for paring

can this be pass key protected, as i do not want any of my neighbors to start connecting and playing music
No it cannot but there is no need. To establish pairing you must physically push the pairing button on the device. So your neighbor would have to be next to the device to initiate pairing.

Can this device be connected in a car using the 3.5 mm jack, and does it have 12v power capibility?

Not as purchased. It's power supply comes from a 110V AC typical "wall wart" transformer that drops it down to a DC signal. That said you certainly can find a car adapter to purchase that would power it if you dig around a bit. And yes, if you had a device with bluetooth audio paired to this device, you could feed the output of the device from its 3.5mm jack into the external/AUX input that many car radios have. Although almost any device that would be playing music would also have that same output jack and you could handle it that way. I could see someone doing what you describe so that maybe someone in the back seat streaming Pandora could sync to the car system to play music without needing a long 3.5mm to 3.5mm cord.

Logitech Wireless Wave Combo MK550. A mouse-and-keyboard combo that gives you a comfort curve without a learning curve. The keyboard’s Wave design with Constant Curve layout guides hands into just the right position and conforms naturally to your fingers, helping you type with ease and confidence in a familiar layout. The laser mouse is a joy to hold and use.
 

How long do the batteries last in the keyboard?

Keyboard specs indicate it uses 4 AA batteries - how often do they have to be replaced?
The keyboard batteries will last some multiple of YEARS. We think of the keyboard as the most used item but the keyboard transmits the keystroke as a very fast pulse. Thus the drain on the batteries is minimal. I have the original batteries in 3 of these keyboards with the oldest being right at two years old. I travel a lot and have two offices so my use might be lighter than others. But suffice it to say you have months and months and months of use even if you are an author who is banging out a novel with 6 hours of non-stop typing a day.

Green Dots

The sales rep, recommended this for use with my Surface Pro. It projects the screen to my TV but video is laced with green dots and thus unwatchable. After trying to change settings, I'm beginning to think it is a quality issue.
You are probably correct. Normally missing colors or specific errors like you describe are the result of weak connections. I would return it and hope that's all it is. If another adapter has the same problem, than likely it may be the output on your Surface. I've had no issues with this and opted for the Apple product just because like Microsoft, they tend to sweat the details on their hardware. I have used mine on multiple monitors/TV's with zero problems. I hope you just got a bad one and an exchange solves your problem. Much easier to swap the dongle than to exchange the Surface!
