Revised LaCie Ora-Ïto Designer USB & Firewire Hub Offer Stylish Connectivity

As far as computer USB/Firewire hubs go, this beautifully designed LieCie Hub designed by Ora-Ïto – which has now been revised to include a completely rounded base – just goes to show what can be achieved with a little innovation and design panache, rendering an otherwise non-descript, somewhat rudimentary item into something that is an object of supreme beauty that few of us would not grant pride of place on our desk tops.
Available in two versions, either USB or USB/Fireware, the LaCie hub offers a series of flexible cables complete with LEDs and, in the case of the USB & Firewire hub (as shown above) even a USB light and a fan.
The two versions presently available are as follows:

LaCie USB & Firewire Hub
4 USB 2.0 ports & 2 FireWire 400 ports
Easy to use; plug & play; hot-swappable
8 flexible cables, 8 colorful LEDs, USB light, USB fan

LaCie USB Hub
7 USB ports for connecting up to 7 devices
Plug & play, hot-swappable
8 flexible cables and 8 colorful LEDs
Truly beautiful in their own right (regardless of their functionality) the LaCie USB & Firewire Hub retails for $80 with the standard USB Hub retailing for around $55.
