good stuff.......2006-03-18
i think the hub works great and i haven't had any problems with it since receiving it.
Portable and "power"ful.......2006-03-02
I purchased this because I have a need to connect multiple USB 2.0 devices that require power. This compact hub includes a fairly compact AC power adapter to power the hub and still keep the total package small enough for travel purposes.

This is another item that I found in the store this one has two USB
ports I highly suggest this item and the other item.
Fair value.......2004-03-23
For its compact and convenience, this USB Hub worths 4 stars but in order to use USB-powered devices such as some mice, keyboards, or other peripheral devices, you might need to buy a seperate power adapter.
One more thing that makes it loses 1 more star is it is very hard to plug or unplug the devices. For example, I have a wireless optical mouse which has a small USB receiver. All 3 other extension ports are plugged in, thus it is very hard, sometimes tricky in a little dark room to plug in the USB receiver for the mouse. (since the ports are so tightly packed)
A tablet type USB hub does not incur this problem. You can buy a 6 ports tablet USB hub for a little more and it works pretty well. I love USB devices and if you do you should consider the other 6 ports before deciding to buy this one. Believe it or not, once you have an USB hub, the ports just run out faster than before. I have 1 Palm, 1 wireless mouse, 1 card reader, 1 digital camera + 1 MiniDisc player (the two works with A-b cable). SO now you see why it runs out pretty fast.
If you have some other devices such as USB drive, my suggestion would be to grab a 6-port.
