You could plug your mouse into it, although some will argue that the accuracy of the mouse will be "noticeably" lower. AFAIK, The ports are USB 1.1, slow bandwidth, and only provide 100mA of current, versus the 500mA current of powered USB 1.1 hubs. I wouldn't use the ports for anything.

Theres a few games that need something plugged in there otherwise it goes haywire and i think one is L4D. Just something to bear in mind if you get probs...doesnt have to be your mouse either, you can stick a camera and a desktop rocket launcher in em!

You can plug in anything You normally would in USB. Only sometimes if plugged in device exceeds current limit You will get message on screen about it and device will not work in theese ports. And speed is only USB1.1
I use them to plug in usb memory sticks, gamepad, connect phone or camera when I don't want to go under the table to the back of my PC as front USB ports on my PC are broken.
