I too have a not so old Belkin USB hub. And it's 1.0. Belkin just sucks in this arena.
I've tried using it with different attachments - funniest side effect was: I plug in a flash drive - and the sucker heats up to 98 degrees, I swear! It was inserted for about 5 minutes... just long enough for me to extract some files from it. I reached down to remove it... and HOT DAMN! That thing was burning HOT! USB 1.0 sucks!
I've relented. I'm going to go purchase a new hub. I just have too many USB devices - my laptop USB ports and my current hub ports are ALL in use and I'm already having to swap devices. *boring*

So, yeah - I'll be getting a new hub myself.
Nice pics, as usual.
