5Works Great Unpowered w/ LaptopFeb 22, 2007
By Tom Tracy
Having been burned before w/ another unpowered USB 2.0 hub drawing too much power from my MacBook Pro's USB port (and therefore being useless), I was hesitant ordering this hub. However, having had nothing but good luck w/ Belkin products in the past, I went ahead and ordered it.

It came today, and it works great unpowered - at least w/ the two USB devices I needed to use with it. I used it with a wireless mouse and an external numeric keypad, and they both worked great - no AC power to the hub needed. I also tried it w/ a wired mouse & the numeric keypad - again, success. Finally, I connected a third device, an HP photo printer. It, of course, has it's own power supply, and it worked great with the other two non-powered devices. So, I am very happy with this little gem of a hub.

Finally, it does come w/ an AC transformer in case you need to give it power. But, the good news is, at least w/ 2 non-powered USB devices, it is not required.

5great productAug 24, 2006
By A. Milne
This hub works fine, doesn't take up a lot of space and can be used with or without the included power adaptor. It comes with an extension cord about 3 inches long so it won't interfere with other ports on your computer. (very useful for a laptop).

5Flexible, functional, perfectJun 18, 2008
By Timothy Evans "evansomd.com"
I've had this item for a year. I've used it with a laptop and a desktop. I've used it with and without the included power cord. I love the flexibility of using power or unpowered, with or without the included USB extension cord (so it doesn't stick straight out of your computer to be side-swiped by someone/something).

This helps me turn my computers into full retail Point-Of-Sale systems, with credit card & barcode readers, receipt & invoice printers, and cash drawers - all connected through USB :)

4Used this with my desktopMay 30, 2008
By Gail Strumberger "Author, "Shock Therapy: Planaphobic""
Couldn't simply plug the hub straight into one of my desktop's USB ports to use it that way as the keyboard would function off of it but my mouse would not. However, it comes with an optional power adapter which helps it function perfectly. Its compact, unobtrusive size combined with the ability to use four additional peripherals makes it A-1 in my book. Would definitely buy another one, if needed.

3Works but does not charge iPhone (3GS)Sep 13, 2011
By Michael Ghiglieri
My Gateway laptop has four USB ports with one used for a bluetooth dongle and one that stopped working for some reason, leaving me with only two available ports.

I have a cable-type USB adapter that adds five ports (similar to the squid-like electrical cords and works fine if the laptop is not mobile.

I was searching for a USB adapter that would provide additional ports but did not have any length of cable. This Belkin adapter was exactly what I was looking for and and could also use on my ACER netbook. The drivers installed easily and I was using the adapter in a short time. To keep this device from blocking the other ports I use a swivel adapter which allow me to have the ports face the rear of the laptop.

The one downfall for me, and a big one, is that the Belkin Thumb Hub will not charge my iPhone 3GS no matter what port I tried. An actual message popped up on my iPhone screen stating this.

Since smatphones lose battery power quickly, is is important to me to be able to charge my phone via USB. Without this ability, I chose to return the item.

I did not try any other family cell phone to see if they would charge but if you don't care about charging your phone (iPhone)this four port adapter is worth purchasing.
