Travel hub

Do you guys think there will be a way to connect the USB cable or the power charger directly to the iLiad without using the travel hub? (via some sort of adapter)

I love my iLiad, but I think it is really retarded having to carry the travel hub everywhere. Its much larger than it would needed to be (I'm considering cuting off the sides), and the whole thing gets really messy once all the cables are plugged in.

The travel hub is a definite miss.
It is about as user friendly as a head-on collision with a Shermantank.
The next-gen Iliad should have separate netadapter, usb-connection, wired net connetion.
Much easier.

The connector remembers the one of the Zaurus 5500. Remember, that one blocking the sliding keyboard when attached!

Hopefully some third party will at some stage produce a power supply to Iliad converter plug. Like the ones used on some Ipaq and other PDA's.
