CES 2007: LaCie Hub, Alien Flower USB Hub
LaCie announced, among other things, a peculiar, albeit original USB hub, called simply, Hub. (Hot, we know.) Hub is in the shape of a bomb from Mario 64, used as a flower pot. Each of the flowers (yes, the flower cutouts are included) are a USB 2.0 or FireWire port (4 USB, 2 FireWire). The Hub comes with a USB light and fan, so you can make some use of it (and perhaps give it some purpose) right out of the box.
