The “doggy back” part of this outfit can be heated in the microwave or frozen before being attached to the Velcro therapeutic jacket to provide your dog with relief for his aches and pains.

There is no need to get some cutesy little USB hub for all your co-workers to see.

Add a little color and some flowers to your desk while increasing your USB peripheral capacity. The Tulip Hub gives you four connections in a package that looks like a small window box of flowers.

If you were trying to dress up a 4 port USB hub, what would come to mind? A 4 legged animal maybe? That is obviously the inspiration for the USB Hubbie. The cute little animal, which I guess is a mouse, is all fun and games until someone turns out the lights.
