Brando Bluetooth USB Adapter Device: size of a penny

This Bluetooth USB is probably the smallest Bluetooth adapter I’ve seen. It’s so tiny, we put it beside a US penny for comparison. It’s compatible with laptops and desktops. However, the adapter allows you to connect to Bluetooth 1.1 devices only. (speed is much slower than the standard version 2.0) This device is now available for $25 at many online stores.
This is ideal for older laptops that doesn’t come with Bluetooth. All Bluetooth devices is pretty big that sticks out from the laptop and the appearance is degraded. Sometimes causes loss connection. You will not have these problems with this penny-sized device because it only extends out about 1 cm! Gadgets like Bluetooth mouse, GPS system, bluetooth printer and cellphones would be the best companions for this.

Wow! I’ve put Bluetooth USBs on all my computers that don’t have it and when it comes time to move things around it can be tricky to figure out which stick is for the bluetooth and which is for the wireless mouse/keyboard. The change of size would help me figure out which one is which

The price of this thing is reasonable and I went out to buy one myself. In fact, it works well with those laptops without bluetooth integrated. Linux compatible too.
