- Nice little hub!

- Not for iMac owners
I have an iMac (2.33 GHz, 24" Aluminum, Mac OS X Leopard) and a 160 GB iPod Classic.When the iPod is plugged into the Linksys hub, iTunes reports that the iPod is connected to a low-power, low-speed USB 1.1 hub.Very disappointing.This hub's going back to Amazon.
