<p>You can twist each port up to 270 degrees, although off the top of my head I can&#8217;t think of why I would need to do that. I mean, it&#8217;s pretty cool and all, and it&#8217;s a fun way to anthropomorphize your USB action, but I&#8217;m not sure if it&#8217;s strictly necessary in terms of functionality. The hub folds up into a nice, neat square when not in twist mode, sort of like a super lame Transformer (<a href="http://transformers.wikia.com/wiki/Nightbeat_(G1)">Nightbeat</a>, anyone?)</p>

<p>Also, it seems unnecessarily HUGE. You can get one <a href="http://www.gadget4all.com/prod_detail.php?prod_id=00358">here</a> for $12.</p>
