Rating: - Great Cable
I agree with the other reviewer's pros, but I haven't experienced his cons (my unit is labled directly - not with stickers, and after a couple of years of use I haven't managed to lose the 4-pin piece {though I don't think I've ever used it}). If you hate tangled masses of cables the way I do, this is great.
Rating: - Good retractable firewire cable
I'm a mobile user and I appreciate the well organized form factor of a retractable firewire cable. I especially like that the cable is 6 pins to 6 pins firewire and also includes a 4 pin converter/adapter that can be slipped over one of the 6 pin end to make the cable 4 pins to 6 pins firewire. Currently, I use it to connect my notebook computer to an external firewire hard drive or my iPod.
Pro's: - convenient, small, retractable form factor...clean, simple design...no more cable messes
- easy to use...pull out the cable to desired length and it clicks into place...press a button to retract the cable - both 6 pin to 6 pin, or 4 pin to 6 pin firewire capable (with included 4 pin adapter)
Con's: - 4 pin adapter is a loose piece and could be lost/misplaced---this is the only reason I give 4 stars, instead of 5 stars - labeling is a little cheap looking (stickers)...but that's being nitpicky - a little expensive if all you want is a firewire cable but don't need the retractability
- Great Cable
