 Useful cable January 7, 2008
Claudio Rodriguez Rdgz (Hermosillo, Sonora, Mex)
There ain't much to say, it's a cable, it's useful, if you don't have a PSP you can still use it to charge a motorola cellphone or to connect a digital camera to your computer.

This cable seems to work fine for USB 1.1, but fails frequently using USB 2.0. It has trouble handling the higher transfer rate. With Pelican products you get what you pay for, very little.
 Transfer problems not strictly hardware issue, but lack of PC familiarity February 1, 2006

I have been using the Pelican USB adapter for some time now without difficulty. I have transferred files over 100 MB in size without any snags. It is, annoyingly, true that the problems described by other reviewers can (and probably will) arise if you are not familiar with USB control architecture. On this account, my impression of the adapter is decidedly mixed.
So, here's how it all REALLY works: USB 2.0 enhanced ports (standard issue these days) WILL lose a file transfer and ultimately not recognize the PSP unless you first disable the USB-PCI bridge (labeled by Windows as "Standard Enhanced PCI to USB Host Control" in the Device Manager window). Once you've done that, the problems disappear, though you are limited to the slower USB 1.0 transfer speeds, which can be an irritant.
I am unsure as to the real source of the problem: The adapter or the PSP's USB architecture. One or the other is clearly incapable of supporting the higher data transfer speeds (think of it as a data log-jam), and judging from some of the comments I've seen, I wouldn't be at all surprised if Pelican decided to graft a power cable onto (very) old refurbished Mini-B USB adapters, which could explain this odd quirk.
The bottom line is that the adapter is NOT useless, and it works perfectly fine IF you know what you're doing...And you're willing to tinker around inside the Windows Device Manager a bit. I WOULD, however, recommend purchasing another brand if you're either turned off by the prospect of having to familiarize yourself with how your PC works or (understandably) offended by the tacit lack of quality.
what do you expect January 1, 2006
C. Guerrero (Quito,Ecuador)
What do you expect for something that cost less than $2.00 to be made. if you want a good cable you should probably spend at least 10 bucks, or simply use any sony camera or texas instruments calculator usb cable... otherwise your just wasting money
Doesn't work for large files, if at all September 27, 2005

I have bought this Pelican USB to Mini-b (PSP port) cable to transfer large files and also the fact that it had a USB to PSP batter charger which is ideal for travelling to other countries where I won't have that countries specific power adapter, this however is the only plus of the Pelican Data Cable.
95% of the time I am not able to get my PSP recognized by my computer, I have tried many, and it is not the PSP because I have tested another USB to Mini-b cable and it works properly. When it does work, you cannot transfer large files, images are fine yes, but images are usually less than 1mb, even less but this is what I have found to be about the limit before the USB loses connection between the PSP and your PC. I have tried transfering 3-4mb mp3s or larger videos to no avail, while I am able to do it with other more namebrand (Belkin) adapters.
Don't buy this unless you need the USB power adapter, a power adapter already comes with the PSP so you won't need it unless you only have access to a USB for power. This is the only reason I won't be returning this piece of junk.
