IBM TP 600E,, extra USB port??

Archived from groups: comp.sys.laptops (More info?)

I haven't heard of any hardware that you could install that would keep in
"internal" to the thinkpad.

That said - I personally use a small USB hub that works perfectly - plug it
into the single USB port, and then 4 other devices into the hub.

Also - depending on your situation - if you're mostly stationary at a desk
or something - you could always buy the Select-A-Base. It would only gain
one additional USB port though. Dpeneds on your situation.

I use the external 4 port hub - not exactly handy, but works for me.

If you want a portable USB hub, Keyspan makes a particularly nice one. Enter
this Google search:

keyspan mini usb hub

The first couple of links will be the product page and a review. Then you
can click on the Froogle link at the top to see who sells it.
