Let the hive mind of Engadget get that for you.
"I finally got a new laptop with a lone USB 3.0 port. I'm now looking at getting a USB 3.0 hub with a power adapter so I can use both of my USB 3.0 hard drives at faster speeds. I've read lots of horror stories where some hubs either don't come with power adapters -- and as a consequence the portable drives don't work with them properly -- or they are designed poorly which results in USB 2.0 speeds. Or, the hard drives keep getting disconnected. Do your readers have any suggestions or experience using USB 3.0 hubs? Thanks!"
In the UK the Banks have introduced "Chip and PIN". Basically it should eliminate this type of fraud (known as Skimming here). Even if they copy the magnetic stripe, the ATM (or till in a store) will look for the chip on the card and wont find it.
There was a TV programme with loads of different types of devices that could work at an ATM: The "Lebanese Loop" is common - it physically holds the card and wont give it to the owner, but the thief can get it out. Others included having a white plastic cylinder with a camera in it, the fraudsters made it look like part of the ATM and the customers didn't notice.
