[CUBE] europe usb hubs

[Erik Ableson]

Belkin products are always horribly overpriced, no matter what the 
market, but priced as follows:

Belkin mini-hub from Best Buy: $19.99
Darty: 29.99 €

it's no deal and try comparing them against: 
<http://macally.com/new/new_hubmini.html> which is not only cheaper, 
but a lot more elegant and goes better with my Cube :-).

  If you stop into just about any US box shop or local PC shop you'll 
see generic and name brand USB hubs in the $12-25 range.
