Yes, I do realize that it only has one USB port, but what I'm asking is if attaching a hub would cause problems.]]>Feb 11th 2010 9:48PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/02/11/hypermac-micro-mini-and-nano-hands-on/http://www.engadget.com/2010/02/11/hypermac-micro-mini-and-nano-hands-on/Feb 11th 2010 9:50PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/02/11/hypermac-micro-mini-and-nano-hands-on/http://www.engadget.com/2010/02/11/hypermac-micro-mini-and-nano-hands-on/Feb 12th 2010 2:08AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/02/11/hypermac-micro-mini-and-nano-hands-on/http://www.engadget.com/2010/02/11/hypermac-micro-mini-and-nano-hands-on/

The ports on the devices seem to all be 5V/1A, so as long as your devices do not draw more than that you should be fine. The USB spec is supposed to provide 500mA of current, so you'll likely be able to charge two devices safely.

Also, the hub should be designed to provide enough power to each port.]]>Feb 11th 2010 10:10PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/02/11/hypermac-micro-mini-and-nano-hands-on/http://www.engadget.com/2010/02/11/hypermac-micro-mini-and-nano-hands-on/It's 200mAh less and only has usb-in, no dc-in but I got one before christmas and tbh I can't say a bad word about it!

Also no kandy kolour options.]]>Feb 11th 2010 10:11PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/02/11/hypermac-micro-mini-and-nano-hands-on/http://www.engadget.com/2010/02/11/hypermac-micro-mini-and-nano-hands-on/Feb 11th 2010 10:28PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/02/11/hypermac-micro-mini-and-nano-hands-on/http://www.engadget.com/2010/02/11/hypermac-micro-mini-and-nano-hands-on/

Would you really be willing to double the weight of those devices for the sake of extended battery for the times when you need more than 10 hours without access to a charge?

I did buy a HyperMac battery for my MBP (which can charge USB devices too) but I only take it when travelling.
