Title: Failed to Read My Fingerprint 90% of the Time
Review: I bought this item in May 2008 for $28 and I ended up throwing it away. More often than not, it wouldn't read my fingerprint, so I ended up having to type in my passwords. And yes I had Microsoft Vista.It is now June 2012 and this Microsoft Fingerprint Reader is selling for $129!! What makes this device SOOO expensive? It only works with XP & Vista. It is not compatible with Windows 7, and I assume it won't be compatible with any newer version of Windows. I just can't believe that this device has escalated so much in price in 4 years and 1 month. That price increase far outstrips inflation - by a large number.I have a hard time believing that this is all due to Microsoft corporate greed (if you believe in that sort of thing). So why is it so valuable? I know MANY reviewers like this gadget, but as I've stated, it didn't work for me 90% of the time.
Is the review positive or negative?
