Flexible headset.......2007-04-10

Unit arrived in a timely fashion and as advertised. As with all noise canceling headphones, a level of background hiss is noticeable in a quiet environment. On airplanes, even turboprops, the over ear design plus the canceling circuit do a good job of reducing ambient noise while audio inputs are well reproduced. As others have noted, there is a booming base quality (overdone?) to audio amplification. The microphone performs well with VOIP and voice recognition software. High marks for the comprehensive collection of connectors that come with the unit and these connect as advertised to computer, playback devices (iPod, etc.) as well as cell phones and landline handsets. Overall, an excellent choice for travelers and mobile computing in a noisy environment. I have rated it down only for the boom and the hiss (a universal characteristic of noise cancellation gear that I have sampled).

Okay, but a few machines didn't like this card at all.......2007-01-04

I've put this card in a few machines that needed a dedicated ethernet connection and it worked great, others just will not work. Hit and miss.

Microsoft got it right with this one!.......2006-12-04

All too often, it's easy to bash MS for attaching their name to products that need fixes/patches. Things that were obviously released too early.

This card is the first exception I have encountered (and I am an IT worker and load all sorts of MS software) !

My dell's built-in intel NIC was not working right and I had to disable it in BIOS and install a NIC card (or use a USB-to-ethernet NIC).

This MS NIC is hands down the easiest plug 'n play card I ever used.

I'm using it with a dell p4 pc, running XP home edition.

One caveat:
DO NOT LOSE your install CD.
(I thought I had lost mine and I could NOT find anywhere to download the drivers)!

I had temporarily missplaced mine and figured I'd simply go online and download the drivers.

Sorry, nope, no can do.

Lots of sites listed the drivers and then simply linked to the MS download webpage.
The resulting link took me to an MSN page stating, "Item not found".

After exhaustively looking/searching on the MS website; it became obvious it was not to easily be found online.

Searching the MS website resulted in an "item not found" !???

I decided to revisit my software storage cases until I could find the original installation CD.
I finally found my CD, ran the setup.exe and all was well.

I have installed all sorts of NIC cards and built-in NICs,
including 3COM, SMC, INTEL, BELKIN, generic, DLINK;
but this MS NIC was the hands down, easiest-to-install, winner.

I wish now that I had bought an extra one, back at the time I bought this one. As a backup NIC (or a "primary" wired NIC) you can't go wrong with this one.

Extremely EASY on WinME!!.......2005-03-03

I currently own an almost 6 year old Compaq Presario Computer. Slowly but surely I've been adding different components to make it "more up-to-date". The computer originally came with Windows 98 but a few years back I upgraded to Windows ME. I haven't upgraded to Windows XP yet because I'm quite comfortable around my old Windows. I recently decided to go for DSL, after thoroughly reading all the system requirements I found out I needed an Ethernet Card because my PC didn't have one. I went on Amazon and researched "ethernet card adapter" and it gave me this and other choices. I bought this on because of the price obviousley. I got it super quick (shipping was more expensive than the actual card) and I just opened my computer, punched out the metal cover over the empty slots. Slipped the ethernet card in (backwards by the way because that's the way it would fit in; now the two lights on the card read backwards but there's no problem) screwed the thing in place and put the cover back on the PC. Turned on my computer and WinME immediately recognized the NEW HARDWARE. It took me to an EASY installation process (most things you have to choose say 'recommended' anyway, my computer needed to restart and VOILA! That's it. HIGHLY RECOMMEND if you have an old dinasour computer like mine :P

Great card and softwre.......2003-01-29

I purchased a [$$$] "Etherengine" card from a different vendor and had nothing but headaches. After spending hours and hours re-installing sofware and downloading patches for Windows 98SE, I finally gave up and bought the Microsoft card. Within 20 minutes I was up and running! The software is fool-proof and the manual is easy to understand. This card is worth it's money.

Easy Setup on Windows ME.......2002-10-08

The Intel network adaptor that came with my IBM PC failed and I wasn't too confident of finding an alternative that would be easy to install on my Windows ME system. The first attempt, with a LinkSys adaptor, failed to connect to the Internet and I had little indication what might have gone wrong. After returning it, I purchased the Microsoft adaptor. It installed easily using the wizard that runs automatically from the CD. All systems now appear to be go and I'm thrilled to be back on-line with an investment of [$$$] and ten minutes installation time.

Product Description

Here's the perfect solution when space gets a little scarce: an RCA TV/VCR combo. You get the quality picture and sound, plus handy conveniences, all in a size that fits just about anywhere. Audio/video inputs in both front and rear offer convenient connection of a video game, camcorder, or another VCR for dubbing. There's even built-in auto tracking so you won't have to fiddle with a manual tracking control when watching most tapes.

Amazon.com Product Description

Need a little bedroom entertainment? How about something that you can take on the road when need be, such as RCA's high-contrast T13082 portable TV/VCR combination unit. The one-piece audio/video entertainment center offers a 13-inch TV screen with NTSC broadcast tuning, a built-in two-head VHS videocassette player/recorder, and a DC vehicle power cord to go with it.

Audio/video inputs in both front and rear offer convenient connections for a video game, camcorder, or another VCR for copying tapes. There's even built-in autotracking so you won't have to fiddle with a manual tracking control when watching most tapes. Auto head cleaning relieves you of having to bring a head-cleaning tape along for the ride, and the unit's quick-start mechanism initiates tape playback as soon as you load a cassette. Auto repeat is great for looping a tape during trade shows and conventions--or keeping the kids entertained with a favorite video that's also overly brief in duration.

You can set the built-in timer memory for up to one year in advance to record as many as eight different programs automatically. A timer backup protects the VCR's clock, channel, and timer memories for up to one minute after power loss, especially convenient when you're only unplugging the device to move it across the room. An alarm timer lets you awaken to a specific TV channel or tape program. Other VCR functions include zero search, index search, blank search, auto rewind, auto power-off, and frame advance. A headphone jack fosters private listening.

One of the set's coolest features is its switchable external speaker output. This lets you hook up external speakers (not included) to rear-panel direct-wire, spring-loaded output jacks. A speaker switch channels audio to either the speaker outputs or to the TV/VCR's single internal speaker.

A supplied NITEglo back-lit remote control with sleep-timer button simplifies nighttime viewing, offering easily identifiable controls for TV volume, channel scanning, mute, and sleep timer. Auto channel programming simplifies system setup.

At 32 pounds, the T13082 is a little hefty for true portable use--but if you're not going to be hauling it from the car or RV to the tent (or your house) every day, it probably won't be a concern. RCA warrants the set for one year parts and 90 days labor.

What's in the Box
TV/VCR combo, remote control, remote batteries, an AC power cord, a DC car cord, a dipole antenna (rabbit ears), an antenna adapter, and a user's manual.

Customer Reviews:

TV's fine, but too bulky for our car........2003-01-26

We bought this as a kid's room TV and to take on our 3-4 road trips a year.

It works fine as a TV/VCR for kid's room, but when we took it in my Grand Am, it is way too bulky. It took up about 1/3 of the back seat and our 7-year old daughter couldn't lay down all the way anymore so it hasn't come on a trip with us since then.

Also, it blew the fuse in the cable after a few minutes. Thankfully, there was a Radio Shack on the way and we were able to replace it. Then, during the trip it blew my cigarette lighter fuse in my car and we had to stop at Wal-Mart and buy some more.

Unless you have a big car, I wouldn't recommend this for travelling.

Works fine at home but don't take it on the road.......2002-06-03

The first trip we took this television on the cigarette lighter adaptor failed continuously - but we managed to keep the T.V. running long enough to watch a movie in segments. The second trip we took it on the on/off button broke (it pushed inside of the television and broke) and the cigarette lighter adaptor failed completely. A great disappointment - especially for the price.

RCA TV/VCR Combo.......2002-04-22

We purchased this TV/VCR combo for use in the kitchen and to put in our minivan for long trips so the kids could be entertained. I found the unit's quality to be suspect at every turn. I should know better than buy RCA, and I will know not to in the future. We would use the push buttons instead of the remote in the kitchen, and lo and behold the on/off button pushed in all the way and broke off. Now a gaping hole exists. The tracking and VCR picture has been atrocious and the sound quality pathtic for even a 13 inch TV. Speakers on the side of the unit does not help. I suggest going with Toshiba or a brand you can trust.

Good price, if only!.......2001-06-03

I bought this model 4 months ago for my kids to watch movies on a 12-hour road trip. I figured that for only a few bucks more than a 9" TV/VCR, I would get one that we could actually use at home, too. I had a bit of trouble finding a place for it in my mini-van, but finally squeezed it in between my 5-year-old's and 3-year-old's car seats in the third row. The day of our trip to Grandma's came, and I spent half an hour playing with the plug to get power to the unit. For some reason, the plug just doesn't fit tightly into the cigarette lighter! After finally getting the plug in at an angle that worked, we were off. And soon, so was the TV. Any time we hit a bump (or I hit the plug with my knee) the delicate balance was interupted, and my kids would begin whining until that was restored. Strike one against the unit.

While it was playing, my kids were happy. I was happy that they were content. But there is an annoying high-pitched "whine" from the unit. And while playing a tape, you can hear the motor turning. Strike two.

But my kids were actually quiet for most of the trip. We returned home and had the same balance problems with the plug, and the "whine" noise from the unit. Once home, the TV found its semi-permanant home in the master bedroom.

Another car trip to Grandma's last month, and the one time we got the plug "balanced" in the lighter outlet, we proptly hit a bump and never did find that elusive angle again. Once we go there, my husband tried the lighters in his parents' cars to no avail. This plug was just too small in diameter (we suspect) to stay snug in the lighter. Strike three.

No more strikes left, but the VCR is not done yet. In the last week, the player has developed a tracking problem. When we insert a tape the picture now jumps for 5-6 seconds before clearing up. That's fine at the beginning of a tape, but when my kids want to finish a movie it can be annoying to have to rewind it a bit because they insist that they "missed that part!!"

All in all, a decent unit for a fair price. But only a week after receiving this model, I saw a power inverter ..., ... so I could have gotten a better unit for less money (and no shipping) if only I'd held off a bit.

A great TV/VCR for the kids........2000-08-23

This isn't a big TV, so you won't be using it as you main TV. But if the kids want a TV and VCR, this is a great choice. It's small, and it'll fit in most spaces, and the included VCR really helps.

On the technical side, there are no problems. Everything seems to work fine. The price is a little high, but it's good for a combo.

works if you don't give up.......2006-07-22

Spent hours and several phone calls with tech support. Finally got someone who kept working until she got it working. Set up wisard seems to be missing some steps. Wouldn't work when we changed the SSID and has to be on channel 11. Got it to work well using WEP64. It's currently working, but have had to deal with "crash override".

This is not a solid piece of equip. I do have a Motorola w/l router that has worked great for almost a year. If the print server starts acting up I will probably replace both with another manufacturer.

All the tech support staff I dealt with were pleasant and knowledgable, but not knowledgeble enough.

This thing is a bag of old pants... Works, but only just!.......2006-02-17

[...] I have 3 desktop PCs and one or 2 laptops in my home WEP WiFi network, and only one HP6540 printer. Seemed like the ideal solution.

Setting it up was no problem whatsoever. Got it to print the Windows test page first time, and was quite pleased with myself. There the fun ended...

I have found that:

* I need to keep it switched off, and only turn it on when I need to print something. If I leave it switched on, the next time I turn on a PC and try to print, I get the old "Print Server connect failure" message, and it needs a reboot.

* When it decides to print, it will print large or small documents quickly if, and only if the print queue is already completely empty. Every time I print something, it leaves a couple of KB worth of the print job in the queue, with status "Printing". This stays there for about 5 mins, and I can't even delete it. If I try, Windows just says "Deleting" for 5 mins.

* When I tried to do a firmware upgrade off their website to see if it would fix the above, it toasted the Flash memory in the print server, and I had to send it back to Mot at my expense for an exchange.

* Gets exceedigly hot if left switched on in the summer.

* Sometimes things get really screwed up. My 7 year old daughter tried printing one of her creations and unbeknownst to me kept getting the "Print Server connect failure" message, so she kept hitting print. Even after rebooting PC, printer and print server, one of the three somehow remembered all those print jobs and started spewing them out. Could I stop it? I could not.

Great concept, very poor implementation.......2005-10-01

Couldn't get this to work with WPA despite advertising saying that it would work.

Couldn't get the product to work with WEP - had to send it back and have another one sent out (at my expense despite the fact the product was broken).

Both the current and the replaced print server has to be rebooted after a couple of hours because it stops working. Motorola "customer support" says this is a known issue.

False advertising by Motorola--do not buy.......2005-09-08

1) Product spec states it supports WPA encryption. I couldn't get it to work so I contacted Motorola tech support by email. The return email stated "the printserver doesnot support WPA security. (sic)" Thus, the false advertising claim.

2) WPA issues aside, I really couldn't get my printer to work using this printserver.

Works Fine For Me.......2005-07-28

I had to play a bit with the installation wizard and, while the installation instructions say that you can disconnect the ethernet cable between the router and the server after installation, I have to leave them connected. Otherwise, it works fine using WPA and the parallel connection. Good range throughout my house. Got a good buy on it--under $50.
