All of the retractable cables feature a ratchet mechanism
that stops them from retracting unless you want them too.
You don't have to be concerned that the retractable cable
will coil up on their own and disconnect you at an inopportune
moment. Each of the different cable adapters is very easy
to put on and take off of the USB and FireWire cables.
The included USB hub is only USB 1.1, but does ensure that
you have enough USB ports in a bind. The inclusion of a tiny
optical mouse with two buttons and a scroll wheel is a great
addition to the kit. While the mouse won't win any awards
for speed or functionality, it is worlds better than using
the touch pad on your laptop for days on end while on the
road.
The included headset and microphone allows you to listen
to messages, music and movies privately while the mic allows
you to use VOIP while on the go. All in all, the Cables To
Go Mobile Office Cable Kit is a great way to keep everything
you might need PC cable wise with you on the go. It takes
up little room in your bag and it works very well.
