Wireless USB hubs

Posted by CmdrTaco on from the now-thats-a-good-idea dept.

HaggiZ writes "Here is alternative to the clutter of USB cables and keys sitting on your desk. Now Belkin has announced their own wire-free USB setup. It's a wireless USB hub, allowing your to plug devices into the hub and have your PC/laptop elsewhere and not need to worry about running cables along the livingroom or study to reach. Very handy for laptop users, I can imagine some very handy uses for so HTPCs as well. Shipping in spring for a shave under $130."

    alludes vs. eludes

    allude: make a more or less disguised reference to; "He alluded to the problem, but did not mention it."

    elude: escape, either physically or mentally; "The thief eluded the police."

    Sorry for the correction, but this is the third time this week that I've seen this error.

    Uhm. Last I checked, Apple *adopted* USB. They didn't invent it. If you'll kindly read http://www.usb.org/about, you'll note that Apple isn't even on the board of directors of the USB standards organization.
