3 out of 5 stars WORKS PRETTY WELL   July 4, 2008
I've been using this for about two months now. The only feature I set up is the automatic password entering. It worked very well when I first set it up, but then I started having trouble getting it to recognize my fingerprint. Now it's working pretty well again. I think it's trained me to be more consistent in the way I swipe my finger - the starting placement, the angle and speed (slower seems to be better) of the swipe, and I think the pressure of your finger all make a difference. And I often find when I'm having trouble, licking my finger seems to help (better contrast?).

The main thing I don't like is not the fault of the reader. I have several older legacy applications at work that the reader software can't recognize the screen as having fields for a username and password. These are applications that were DOS-based, and have been upgraded to work in a windows environment.

One of the reasons I bought it was to see if my 88 year old father (who has Parkinson's, and has difficulty typing) could cut down on the number of passwords he has to type. I now realized this would not work for him. With his shaky hands, I'm sure the reader would have problems.



5 out of 5 stars Must have product for anyone that uses a computer!   June 23, 2008
I have used a lot of password management programs and other fingerprint scanners as well. None have come close to the ease of use and great features of this product.

It was easy to setup (Windows XP Pro) and very easy to use, I have had no issues with the software at all. The scanner reads my fingerprint the first time about 95% of the time and the 5% of the time it doesn't I am usually trying to scan it from an odd angle or just going to fast.

It is also very easy to use this scanner on multiple computers as well, just export your password file to a thumb drive and your ready to go.

If you are tired of trying to remember complex passwords or dozens of different passwords without losing security by writing them down this is the product for you!



5 out of 5 stars upec fingerprint reader   June 16, 2008
A very good product for under $50 and the only one I've found that runs perfectly on 64 bit Vista. Support was there and 100% helpful. I would highly reccomend this device.


4 out of 5 stars Great Gadget   June 15, 2008
I bought this fingerprint scanner a while back, and except for the occasional misread, works perfectly. I have even created my own voice for access allowed/denied and get a laugh out of it everytime. The locked files it creates work great as well. The only thing i wish it had was like a retinal scanner =D
