This 4-port USB hub is the ideal companion for your laptop or desktop computer. It allows simultaneous operation of up to four separate devices all attached to a single USB port. The octopus-like extensions are great for bulky USB devices, such as thumb drives and card readers, that don't work with standard USB hubs. The design also helps to eliminate cable clutter. This hub is perfect for use with all USB 1.1 and USB 2.0 peripheral devices.

Works perfectly! . This USB octopus is a great accessory for my Windows7 computer.
I operated the octopus with all four terminals loaded simultaneously using a Bluetooth dongle, a USB Broadband dongle, an HTC Trophy (charging), and a USB flash drive. No problems.
I tested the USB flash drive in this configuration for comparison with results I got a while ago with the flash drive plugged directly into the computer. I got a pretty negligible decrease in performance:
Plugged directly into the computer:
Writing speed: 9.67 MByte/s
Reading speed: 26.9 MByte/s
Plugged into the "busy" octopus:
Writing speed: 8.52 MByte/s
Reading speed: 23.2 MByte/s
The computer didn't hiccup a bit. Readyboost still worked fine.
I also operated an external hard drive through the octopus with one other terminal supporting the USB Broadband dongle. No problems.

I was so impressed with the octopus that I immediately ordered a second one. Now I can leave one at home and have another in my laptop bag. I wish I could give the octopus more stars!
