 Not up to par Apr 03, 2010
By Daryl Kunzmann
"pc traveler"
I ordered this device for use with my notebook thinking it would allow me to flip dongles and flash drives any other direction than straight out.
I was more than a little dissappointed.
Pros - flexible, ratcheting, good connectors
Cons - not stiff enough, internal ribbon cable pinches
While this looked like what I need, a couple of major problems jumped out.
1) If you use this to reposition a flash drive (OCZ 8gb) and have to carry your notebook, just the act of walking will allow the drive to move. If you don't check before you set it down - one broken device.
2) To allow the flexibility, a thin ribbon cable runs internally from the male to female end. Within a first few tries, I was finding the ribbon cable was getting pinched between parts not allowing a full 90 degrees of movement and damaging the ribbon cable.
Due to the price, I will use this a bit more but expect due the poor design construction, it will have a short life span.
Recommendation: do not buy this device.

 Great USB gadget Aug 28, 2009
By T. P. Berding
The Apple Air has a USB port that is located under and inboard of the laptop's edge. Some USB devices like air cards won't clear the edge of the case when attempting to plug them in. This flex adapter acts as an extension and then rotates and bends so that the device can be used in any position. Better than a cable extension.

Works great for awhile Aug 06, 2010

"Big Blue's Driver"
This multi angle device works great for about a month, then it quits. Great idea, but the execution is less than you would hope for.

Works as advertised Feb 06, 2010
By P. Fleury
This USB flex adapter works very well. It easily changes from left hand to right hand, and the cable can exit to the rear just above the desktop surface or an inch higher to clear the path of other hardware.
