Default Mobile Action MA-8880 USB Cable Review

I recently bought this cable/software kit so I can synchronize my data
with the Motorola A630 mobile phone. I have had extremely hard time to
get the driver and other software installed on my computer. I have
already spent many days trying to get some basic stuff working. In the
end, the whole process is a very frustrating and disappointing
experience.

Firstly, I could not install the driver software on my desktop
computer. This is a 2004 model computer with surplus memory, hard disk
space, and with a high-end graphics card. It runs XP Home edition.
After spending a couple of days trying to get the drivers installed, I
just gave up.

Next, I tried to install the same on my laptop computer. It is a 2001
model computer with XP Professional edition. After some struggling, I
got the drivers installed. Few more hours, and I could manage the
installation of Handset Manager software. I could successfully download
the pictures I had taken using the camera in the phone. I could also
download my contact information from the phone. However, I didn't see
anything to synchronize my Outlook information with the phone. Feature
could be there in some other software, but I haven't seen it yet. Then,
I tried to install necessary software so I can upload some games. After
a VERY LONG process, I couldn't perform one of the steps and I am now
stuck. So, I still can't install any games to my phone.

Their online helpdesk is open only during business hours. I can't take
a day off from work just get this software working.

I have been working with computers for about 20 years and I consider
myself profecient with computers.

If you choose to buy hardware/software kit from Mobile Action, my best
wishes for you.
