Has anyone used one of these- http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16833130023

Some user on the Newegg claimed Mac support but the review is older. So I wanted to see how well (connection/ distance/iSync) it worked with Panther and Tiger.
Seems like a decent deal since its ten bucks after rebate.

I've been using the Zonet BT adaptor for a couple months now. It's been fantastic. No problems.

iBook 500mHz, 10.4.2

Just wondering what functions/programs/peripherals you have used it with.

iSync mostly. My BT cell phone won't run Sailing Clicker or anything, sadly, so I can't speak to that. But the Zonet seems to have full functionality. BT file transfer and everything works great. Anything in specific you're curious about?

Yeah- http://www.macmedia.sk/pa.htm and http://www.irowan.com/romeo/

Those and iSync would be the main uses for me

My phone doesn't support either of those apps. But the Zonet had full functionality with BluePhoneElite (http://reelintelligence.com/BluePhoneElite/) when I tried it out. It really seems like regular BT functionality. Hope this helps.
