Earth Trek offers up VGA webcam with 2-port USB hub

It's not often that you find a webcam that's multifaceted, but Earth Trek's webcam is just that. Dubbed the "hottest webcam" this world has ever seen (um, no), this unit packs a 1.3-megapixel camera, VGA capture abilities, auto focus / auto brightness and the real kicker, a 2-port USB hub. Probably still a ripoff at $45, but if you need those extra peripheral ports bad enough, who knows what you'd be willing to do.

I really need this. I lost my cam when I moved and can't afford to replace it.

"...if you need those extra peripheral ports bad enough, who knows what you'd be willing to do."

Well, I'd probably buy a ~$15 4 port USB hub.

Or a PCI USB card and do away with the hassle of bottlenecking a single USB port?

Either way, this is a stupid idea.
