I'd like to know that SOMEBODY (at least) read my post about the "sharing" hub. Maybe my subject heading didn't succeed in grabbing anyone's attention. It's a very useful device, and one that a lot of people aren't aware of.

I was going to post a reply right away but I was too lazy. I saw it and liked it, too. I might buy one myself. Thanks for this discovery.

Glad to see the sharing hub is being discovered. I'm thinking I'll mount it on the right side of my T2 with Velcro. LED indicators won't be in view, but that's not much of a loss.

A 15ft AB cable connects the sharing hub to my PC, and one of the two included AB cables connects the hub to the T2's front port.

I currently have 2 pen drives and a harddrive plugged into the hub, leaving 1 port free. It's a sweet setup!

I wasn't looking forward to popping pen drives in and out of my PC/T2 combination the way I used to pop floppies in and out of my PC/PSR550 combination. I don't think the sockets will take that kind of abuse. This is a great alternative!
