hmm...
Amazingly tiny and functional- but it doesn't have the one function that I really wanted, which was to use my bluetooth headphones (moor- from mobile fun and excellent) on my laptop. Probably my fault for still being on windows xp(pro) and wanting modernity.

Does the job
Tiny, simple and effective, it does what it says. Small enough not to notice it. It is sadly not quite small enough to allow it in a usb port which is next to the docking station, bercause it is just too big to allow it it fit in the tiny space, but it lioves in one of the usb ports and stays there. Other ones are bigger.

better than the rest
I bought the atomic pico bluetooth dongle since the one I had was protruding out of the usb slot too much and it was inconsistent in catching the signals from the blue tooth receiver. I had to get the first one I had replaced, but the second is much better in terms of connectivity. I have had to stuff a bit of card in the top slot of the usb to enable a better contact. It's worth the buy.

Truly Tiny
I was looking for a bluetooth dongle to allow my wife to transfer files from her computer to her phone as she never knows where the cable is. I wanted something I could 'fit and forget' so it had to be small and also had to work with windows 7 64bit. This dongle is both, it worked in windows 7 with no drivers to install and really is small. I actually forgot I had fitted it and then wondered why I could not plug my printer into the USB port, you can barely see it when installed. Just remember to plug USB items into another port. It also works perfectly so no functionality has been lost making it so small. Brilliant!

Small but perfectly formed
This is a great product. I already had one, but someone (not mentioning any names but closely related to me) trod on it and it broke. Now here's the thing, this little bluetooth dongle makes perfect sense for my PC, enabling connectivity with a number of devices. I purchased a bluetooth headset and can now play games without bothering the neighbours (or for that matter the unamed person who trod on the original. This product is neat and once installed you can just forget it and get on with life and if that rhymes with wife then you may get a clue as to who broke the original.

Small and discreet
The Atomic Pico is an ideal blue tooth adaptor for those computers that don't come with built in bluetooth. A small discreet device that fits neatly into any spare USB port offering connection to all my bluetooth accessories. Although some people have complained about the range this is not a problem in most situations.

Awesome product!
I have ordered this product after reading very good reviews. Ordered it last Friday evening, shipped Monday lunchtime and arrived this morning through letterbox. Packaging was very nice and easy to open. Thought I lost it but found it in the end after it fell out the packaging. Wow! What a truly small product this is! Struggled to get it into USB port but managed it in the end. Decided to install Bluesoleil 5.4 software first so that I can use my Sennheiser PX 210BT headphones. Software installed no problem, dongle was detected and working again no problems. Best of all, headphones paired and connected with, well, no problems! Bluesoleil even switched my default internal sound card to its own AV audio driver! Also tried it with my phones with the same result. Very easy to connect and pair and all features work as expected. This is on Windows 7 Professional 32 bit. I hear it works good on 64 bit as well but can't comment at this time. Very happy with my purchase, thanks Mobile Fun for the great service and speedy delivery! I may even order another one to use with my netbook!

This is just tiny and works! Uses the Windows Bluetooth stack so no 3rd party software is needed and the size of it means it sits flush with my laptop. If I have one niggle it is so small that it can't be removed very easily but I wouldn't want to.

really neat and works a treat
This dongle really is tiny and with circuit board type wiring rather than an actual usb plug. This means the dongle can plug right into the usb socket as usual, but with minimal protusion, unlike other dongles where the standard usb plug won't go in quite far enough. More or less invisible when in and can be left there permanently. It worked straight out of the packaging and plugged into a Windows 7 computer to upload and download files off a mobile phone. Haven't tested the maximum range but fine for connecting devices close to the computer. Delivery from the seller was very quick.

Atomic Pico Bluetooth Dongle.
You have no idea how delighted I am with this product! Had a new laptop (Windows 7) for Xmas and have since been trying to install a Bluetooth dongle including Belkin and Dynamode, (which I was assured were "the best"!), to no avail - couldn't detect drivers, couldn't detect devices, etc., etc. The Atomic Pico Bluetooth Dongle, however, (which comes with a dear little CD software addition which I assume includes all the neccesary drivers and "stuff"!), just worked like a dream! Thank you, thank you, thank you!!!

Good Hardware, Bad software
The dongle itself works fine. The software that comes with it is an old release of Bluesoleil; you have to pay to upgrade to a later release that contains useable function.
Pity...it spoils the experience. Two stars only because of the software issue.

OK, great foe size but limited usability
I read about some ravereviews and bought this one, thought of buying three but had bit of skepticism and ordered one. It is small as advertised but would have limited use on normal PCs and USB ports with recessed access, as this nano strugglkes to fit in. In terms of functionality, it is as good as other USB bluetooth dongles.

This a brilliant little adaptor, just plug it into a spare usb slot and insert the utility disk supplied. Perfect for a laptop, it's that small that once in the usb slot you can just forget it's there, so small and compact it don't protrude from the slot. Great purchase, once again well done Mobile fun.

Atomic Pico Bluetooth Dongle
I had earlier bought from eleswhere, a small bluetooth dongle whose description said it worked with all computer systems. It didn't. My lap top is brand new, and has a 64 bit Windows 7 operating system. Mobile Fun not only described the Atomic properly, but also took the trouble to confirm by e-mail before purchase, that it would work on my machine. So, if you have a computer that has a 64 bit operating system, using Windows 7, then you can buy this miniature gadget in the knowledge that it works!

Atomic Pico Bluetooth dongle.
This Bluetooth dongle has to be the very smallest that is available, once in a USB port fits completely flush and undetectable whilst still giving my laptop connectability. The Toshiba Bluetooth stack has no problems configuring it on windows7 at all. Overall an excellent buy and well worth the money paid. I would recommend this to anyone and give a 10 out of 10 score all day long.
100% satisfied with this purchase.

ATOMIC PICO BLUETOOTH DONGLE-SEE SIZE DOESN'T MAT
The atomic pico bluetooth dongle doesn't really dongle at all, it fits so snuggly in its usb that there's hardly any gap between it and the laptop's casing, but just enough to a get a finger nail in to retrieve it. But why bother, just leave it in, as it's even the same colour (black) and texture as my acer 5334. As for the performance and the simple loading of software and instant, ready to use driver and setup - get one before they run out again, i'm sure it it being sold too cheap. The price of fish 'n' chips in some places. And the pico will last much longer.

Great little thing
Using this product on my Packard Bell TM86 Notebook. It only sticks out from the slot by a couple of mm. I have sanded the edges down the make it more discrete, it works like a dream. However the signal doesn't quite reach the full 10m.
Product comes with software package BlueSoleil 5, works well on Windows 7 x64 and can be embedded by selecting the 'Bluetooth Places' via the options.
And for those that get annoyed by the balloon notifications telling you to update to version 8; go on my device properties and uncheck the automatic updates via the advanced tab.
I recommend this product to anyone.

Good, with some niggles
I bought this because it seemed the most likely to run on my Win7 64-bit machine without issues.
I plugged it in, and sure enough, it installed using default drivers so quickly that it took a while to notice the new Bluetooth System Tray icon pop up. It gave me options to send/receive files, etc.
However, pairing with my stereo headphones gave just a headset icon with a failed install for no drivers. After a few attempts, and asking it to automatically download drivers (none found), I uninstalled, and ran the CD installer instead.
Once I'd run the main installer in the root directory (not in the amd64 or x86 subdirs) it installed BlueSoleil successfully. It's an app that caters to the beginner, and less responsive than the default drivers, but once paired and set up, it seemed to connect to my headset fine. In use, there is a slight delay in the audio through my headset, which is slightly distracting in films.
So - if you only need the basic functions and default drivers/networking, it works like a dream. If you want stuff that needs the Bluesoleil install, like Bluetooth audio, then it still seems to setup very well, and works OK - probably better than the cheaper similar dongles on other sites - but is a bit rough around the edges.

Works Well!
Super fast delivery, ordered it yesterday morning, received it this morning before 9am! Thx Mobilefun!
This dongle actually states it's Bluetooth version 2.1, and not 2.0 as stated on the product page.
It works with my Nokia handset with PC Suite on XP Pro SP3 and also works with SE phone on PC Suite on Win-7 64-bit!
No problems whatsoever!
If you're online, do not install included drivers on disc. Just plug in and let Windows install/download automatically, then install your PC suite software.
Highly recommended for laptop users who want the most discrete dongle available.

So discreet !
The size of this bluetooth module has to be seen to be believed, once in the laptop it just looks like a tiny switch. If you're not used to Bluesoleil it takes a few references to the help section to learn how to do stuff like transfer files but you soon catch on. Saves messing about with data cables !

Best micro BT dongle yet!
I've bought several BT modules that claim to be small enough to leave in all the time but this is the first that has actually lived up to that claim. I installed it on my Acer One Aspire A150 netbook and it's almost invisible - in fact I think I'd need pliers to remove it! I used a copy the Widcomm drivers (v5.0) from another dongle which detected and installed it without a hitch. Paired with my Nokia E71 and Logitech V470 mouse (great mouse BTW) without a hitch. This was on XP.

Awesome!
This is a really small dongle, it's tiny!
Works with stock XP, Vista, 7 drivers, although the Soleil drivers are included on the disk.
What I like about this dongle is that it gets inserted all the way into a USB port.
With other small dongles the connectors(the USB connector metal itself) were too long so when you inserted them they didn't fit all the way in, the connector was still sticking out a little and visible.
Great service from MobileFun! Thank You!

Small and unobrtusive Bluetooth dongle
I purchased this "pico" sized Bluetooth dongle so that I could use a Bluetooth mouse with my netbook. It works perfectly with Windows 7 - the supplied driver CD wasn't needed at all. Can't comment on using the dongle for sending data or for Bluetooth headphones, as I haven't tried these features. The dongle itself is amazingly small and unobtrusive. It can be left plugged in to the netbook without being in the way. Excellent value and prompt delivery too.

Absolutely tiny but let down by software
For the techies out there, this device ships with Bluesoleil software, V2.6 and a note advising the purchaser (after they've cut open the bomb-proof packaging) that the outer packaging is incorrectly stating it ships with Widcomm software. No matter, you can get that working with a little Googling if you don't like the Bluesoleil software. Otherwise an excellent buy - seems to work well and at a glance you can't even see it sticking out of the side of your laptop. It's very discrete until someone notices it and then it becomes a talking point - there is no activity indicator on it and that's personal preference as to whether or not you would want on. Personally my old "Nano" dongle used to drive me nuts with its permanently flashing LED.
I can't see anyone making one smaller than this for a long time.

so small, only sticks out of my Dell laptop by about 1 maybe 2 mm. Works fine and installs very easily. Really happy as the last "micro" tiny was good, but always gets caught on the side of the carry case that I have - Really annoying.
Highly recommended - If you have a laptop without Bluetooth, this is a must. (Haven't tested the range yet though)
