Kensington 2-Port MiniHub

RRP: AU$39.95 Kensington 2-Port MiniHub

The Good: A simple and small way to add an additional bus-powered USB hub to your notebook or desktop PC, and quite literally a plug and forget kind of operation.

The Bad: The USB cable that comes with the MiniHub is exceedingly short, which pretty much precludes it from serious desktop use. Being bus-powered, it won't work with USB peripherals that need additional power.

The Verdict: The MiniHub is a nice piece of extremely portable technology, but only those with ultra-light notebooks that have easy-to-reach USB ports should apply.
