This review is from : ADS Tech USB Ultra Hub 4 (USBH-604)
A good buy with only a few downsides. . First of all, this is a VERY good looking unit. It's exactly how I hoped it would look after seeing the picture on the Amazon.com page. And it works fine, no problems encountered yet in a month of use, and with three different computers - a laptop with Win98, a desktop with WinMe, and a desktop win Win2000.A few notes though: 1. There are 5 LEDs visible to the user. This is a good idea, but...... There's one red one, to show that it's powered on. Then four green ones, one for each port. The only problem is, as long as Windows is loaded, ALL the green lights are on, which does NOT reflect which ports are actually in use. So, they're really just for show. 2. The unit is very light, but the cords hanging off the back aren't. So, if you have the unit sitting within a couple inches of the back of your desk, rather than on the floor, the cords will put weight on the back of it and cause the front to not sit flat on the desk. A little unsightly. 3. I wish they put the AC-DC converter in the unit itself rather than have a large power adapter. Plus, since they unit is translucent, I can see that there is a bit of room to spare where they could have added an internal AC-DC converter. Plus, this would solve the weight problem (#2).

ADS Tech USB Ultra Hub 4 (USBH-604) Reviews
Does The Job! . I'm a first time computer owner but very particular about electronic "Gear"(i'm an audiophile).I happen to be very happy with this Hub so far(one month old).It does the job it is intended to,I have a printer,scanner and my keyboard connected to it and it works just fine.Now I have 3 extra usb ports open for business. It is a bit light in weight but then most others are too.I'm an iMac user(running OSX) and if you are too then I would suggest you give this one a try.

Excellent Deal . For the price you can't go wrong. Plus a USB cable is included.
Cons Review
Poor Performance & Customer Support . I purchased an Ultra Hub 4 from Circuit City, connected it to my PII and it worked for about 3 min. After the first three minutes the four green "hub" lights (indicating the hubs were working) did not remain lit on a continuous basis. I tried unplugging all cables sequentially but the hub never performed to my expectations. I wrote ADS Tech customer support and they never repsonded. I will return the Ultra Hub 4 and exchange for a better brand. I guess you get what you pay for . . .
