hellow kitty USB hub

$90 + shipping for a 2-port USB (1.1 probably) hub. Maybe they first send out some dope to the dope who'd buy it.

Was the hellow a play on meow? :wink:

Take it however you want, but I'll consider it a product of 3:35am typing.

USB Homer rulez.

w00t!

My first choice for a useless USB gizmo. Man, I can't imagine buying one of these things.

Here's another to make you go WFT?

Cool side Cool. Hot side Hot

Wasn't IrDA worthless enough without the adjectives "smallest USB"?

Lastly, a remote that's probably actually pretty cool, until you see the pricetag.

OK. I'm tapped.

"Wired" magazine and google can only take a man so far.

USB powered beverage warmer---now there's an idea worth looking into....

I have a catalogue from a parts supplier with a flexible USB fan in it - i.e., a USB connector, a bendy rod about 12 or 18 inches long, and an unshrouded three-blade fan about 1 or 2 inchs in diameter on the end, sufficiently powerful to cool ... er ... a mosquito or a 100MHz RAM chip.

A 2-port USB hub would be second to a 2-port Ethernet hub.

One could probably make $millions$ selling Firewire dildos.

Somehow "Firewire Dildo" doesn't sound too comfortable......now USB dildo has a nice, mysterious ring to it.

iGary's comment reminds me of a funny story involving my very determined ex and a Hitachi MagicWand...
