zib_redlektab Registered: 03/17/07 Posts: 42 Loc: Avoiding Direct Sunlight	Hey I'm building an iPod dock out of the cardboard box it shipped in, I've already got it talking to the computer: http://www.tabblo.com/studio/stories/view/225350/ Now I have two goals. The first is to put in some small speakers to get full dock functionality, the other is to put in a usb 2.0 hub, since I'm out of ports with the iPod and my tablet plugged in, and I might as well combine the dock and hub. So does anyone know of a good small usb2 hub that I could charge an iPod from? And since this is for a portable dock it should get power from the computer, not an AC adapter. Any help would be appreciated! _________________________ MacBook Pro Intel Core Duo 2.0ghz, 1gb ram Dell 228WPF 22" monitor Mybook Premium 320gb iPod Nano 4gb (red) Wacom Intuos3 6x11
