Synchrotech Adapter Turns ExpressCard to USB Dongles

  July 28th, 2007



Some road warriors are torn between getting a notebook's friendly ExpressCard HSDPA adapter and a universally compatible USB equivalent. The USB offers compatibility for both desktops & laptops while the ExpressCard can fit snugly inside the slot on a notebook without inherent risk of bending or breaking like a USB dongle.

To kill two birds with one stone, here's a USB 2.0 to USB 2.0 Mode ExpressCard Adapter even though their marketeer needs a lesson on naming their products. The MicroU2E from Syncrotech allows use of USB-based ExpressCards with USB ports, which unleash the hidden interface in many these cards. They are mostly memory adapters, 3G modems, WiMax, serial converters and SSDs. SIIG has a similar product but we prefer the $38 Synchrotech for its nifty packaging.
