  Recently I have purchased this USB hub from Amazon.com. When I have looked at product image on Amazon.com, I thought it is a bulky one but I don't have any other option except to rely on the product name which says "Super Mini". After I have recieved the shipment, I am astonished to see this piece of equipment. It so small infact its perfectly "Super Mini". This is a perfect gadget for a traveller with notebook having less number of USB ports. By the Way, one more additional feature is that it can handle high power USB devices like Digital Cameras etc, without having to power them seperately.
  
  

• Perfect size, but not without limitations

  This little 4 port USB hub is awesome. For it's size, it actually accomidates nearly any USB plug or device quite nicely (though there is the rare occasion where a device is simply too big to fit next to another plug or device on the same side of the hub). However, I have had several problems with the hub due to power limitations. The hub comes with a Y-style USB cable with two standard USB male connectors; one is the main/data plug (black plug) while the other is the additional power plug (red plug) for when devices draw more power than the hub can supply. In every case I've tried, the red plug has been of no use. I have two external hard drives that refuse to work at all and a portable scanner that delivers poor scans when plugged into it. This is when no other devices are plugged into the hub and the red plug is in use. Everything else works great, and even though I only give it 3 stars (for its limited utility) overall I really love it and recommend it to anyone who needs more USB ports on-the-go.

  I use this for my job. I have had wonderful results and NO hiccups or freezing, so it 'is' fast enough and goodness knows we need it! :)

  I received this as a gift for Christmas and finally opened the packaging and started using it.
  
  GREAT product, I have my Blackberry, Samsung P2 (music and video player) and Jawbone charging from this USB device which is the size of a postage stamp. The Y cable allows you to either plug in one or two cables as needed (Y - one cable for power and data and an additional cable for additional power). I plugged this in with 1 Y cable but needed the second cable in order to power the Blackberry (it charges fast so it must need more power).
  
  Have used other Targus USB hubs but they do not work as well --- they are much larger and sometimes do not work as there is not sufficient power --- requiring an electrical plug to make it all work. So, all if all this was a GREAT Christmas present and it will be a permanent fixture in my bag for travel, I can charge multiple devices with just USB cords and NO additional chargers to take on the road other than the one that goes with my laptop.

  Even though I got it used it works flawlessly, and does not have a scratch on it.
