OK, you Star Wars fans out there, get
your light sabers and all your movie inspired memorabilia ready cause
it's time to make room for some new additions to your collection as
the R2D2 and Darth Vader USB hubs have become available.
We all know those USB ports are
never enough and that going behind your computer every time you want
to plug or unplug a device is not that nice, especially since no one
seems to ever dust back there, so why not just add a few more ports
via a USB hub.
And I am not talking about your
everyday
USB hub, but one of these new cool looking devices (if you
are a
Star Wars fan that is) that offer "authentic"
character movie sounds while charging you devices.
Yes, thats right, you will hear R2D2's
bleeps and bloops or Darth Vader's trademark ominous breathing,
depending on what model you choose.
Now, on a more practical side, this
things will get you an additional four USB ports so that makes them
quite a decent solution, although not the greatest one out there,
especially if you go for the Darth Vader figurine since all the ports
are crammed together and some larger devices may block one or two
connectors next to it.
Pricing isn't also that great since
these retail for $99.99 a bit too much even for us Star Wars geeks.
