Rosewill 6ft USB 2.0 to Mini USB
Pros: Cheap cable (2.99) I use to a) use my HTC xv6700 as a high speed modem for my laptop when wifi isn't avilable; b) to charge my HTC that has poor battery life I bought 2; so I can leave one at work and one with the laptop at all times
Cons: Shipping is almost always more exspensive than the product unless you can get a "free 3 day shipping" on an item which newegg does fairly regularly.
Newer technology is not always the best
Pros: Stable fast 802.11b/g wireless router that is very automatic and good at what it does....but please see below
Cons: I have owner numerous linksys wrt54g ver x routers in my life and have always loved loading DD-WRT (aftermarket free OS) with the base wrt54g they are shipping 4mb rom's (use to be up to 8mb); these new wrt54g2's specifically have a 2mb rom which is not big enough to load aftermarket roms...beware if your intentions were upgrading
Another dvr
Pros: Not many, made in china
Cons: the fact that I purchased it from newegg!
The new Linksys cable modem
Pros: I have had a few of the linksys befcmu10 (previous cable modem model) and they had always lasted through everything minus mere direct lighting hits, I bought this new model and have a 10mb/cable internet through charter and it is absolutly blistering fast on all speedtest reports I get a tad over my 10mb reported (although yes I know almost any other modem including charters rental's could acheive this with good enough line conditions (the surfboard modems)
Cons: I can't really say there is a con; I wouldn't have minded buying "the old model" for maybe 15/20 bucks off the price.
