Belkin Wireless USB Hub”

Does look interesting Charles - I have been checking for its availability for 2 or 3 months but it seems to have been delayed until somtime in July (perhaps launching in the states first). I've been wanting to test it out on the hummy so I dont need to be neceserily near the PVR with my laptop. I dont think it will be that fast but then it doesnt have to be because transfering recordings from the hummy or toppy via the onboard USB port isnt that fast anyway.

I have overcome the problem of connecting the two by siting the Topfield alongside my PC (having a 14 " TV as monitor) and using a wireless AV sender (AEI) for reception in my Main and Bed room. Being permanently connected enables me easily to down load .rec files for archiving, I do this overnight, and upload my MP3's. The reception in both rooms is perfect. (The monitor, of course, is optional)
