From: Amazon Posted: Sep 12, 2008 Type: User Review Not Easy At All

Like many others here, I found this product basically unusable. After hours of effort and multiple attempts at starting the trasfer process I finally gave up. It seemingly works for some people, but I found it a total waste of my time and money.

From: Amazon Posted: Sep 07, 2008 Type: User Review Belkin transfer cable

This product worked very well with one exception. There was no warning that any e-mails on the new computer would be wiped out by the transfer from the old computer. If there had been, I would have backed them up. No other files on the new...

From: Amazon Posted: Aug 13, 2008 Type: User Review Belkin Easylink Transfer Cable - just what I ordered!

While the cable is as good as Gold, the easy transfer program it works with is less than what I consider user friendly. It does transferring rather more autonomously than I would like with not enough feedback information for me to know about what...

From: Amazon Posted: Aug 04, 2008 Type: User Review Didn't work with XP home edition

The cable did not operate with Windows XP Home Edition on my old computer, although I saw no prior specification to indicate that. Thus, I wasted quite a bit of time ordering and trying to use this "easy transfer" cable.
