7-Port USB Hub Gives You 3 More Ports Than Usual

Why settle for the four-port USB hubs littering up the component section of your local Fry's when you can grab a 7-port hub for the same price. Brando has a $26 7-port powered USB hub available now, which means if you buy two, you're never going to run out of ports for all the crazy USB gadgets we feature here. Of course, it's no 16-port hub, but this doesn't look like something from the early '80s. – Jason Chen

Hasn't Belkin been making 7-port hubs for like, five years now?

They may not be something from the early '80s but Belkin's had something virtually identical for at least the past 2 years.

Looks like Belkin's is self-powered, meaning this one has a leg up since it's AC powered.

Yeah, I've got a D-Link 7-port hub that's about four years old.

If I bought two if these, and glued one on top of the other, granted I would lose 4 ports, but then I could say...

This one goes to eleven!

@AlanJC:

Yes yes, before someone anal enough to care comes along, I meant 3, not 4, but it still means it would go to eleven :P
