Lenovo Power Hub adds three USBs to ThinkPads
Lenovo has revealed a new accessory for ThinkPad notebooks powered by 65W or 90W packs called the PowerHub. It works as a pure charger but adds four USB ports into the brick and one USB cable that plugs into one of the two USB ports on the ThinkPad 90W or 65W. It provides power and is a USB hub for three additional USB devices.
Three of the USB ports in the hub will both transfer data and charge attached devices, while one will power a device only. Whether Lenovo will actually bundle the compatible notebooks with the Power Hub remains unknown, but users can now buy it as a standalone accessory for $75.
