@mathie the wait for Ap2 was worth it :-D

IME it’s more normal for hubs to work than not work. Only thing I can think to check is that the hub and everything on it are USB 2.0 in case some device on it gets upset about running at the lower speeds.

It’s awesome; soo fast. I picked up that and a 4GB extreme card recently.

The first rating pass in Ap2 with Quick Preview switched on will be worth the wait, trust me. :-) If it doesn’t turn up soon, maybe I should demo it to you on my laptop in a pub…? Sounds like a worthy excuse for a pint to me. :-D

As for USB hubs, I just don’t plug in devices I’m not actually using, that way avoiding the need for a hub at all. I’ve yet to find a hub that behaves reliably on Mac OS X with drives attached.
