USB question

[clawski]

I understand that when you get your GP32 it has to be registered online (?). As I only have one USB port (and that is used to connect to me the internet). Could I have a potential problem on my hands upon the delivery of my highly anticipated GP32?

Can someone clarify this for me, will I need to go online lots, coz I could dial up using my modem or otherwise get a USB splitter. What do you think?

Hmmm
Yeah - you may have a problem

You need a USB hub, or you wont be able to connect at the same time as plugging in your GP32 - vital if you are to register.

You can do it from another PC if you want though....

i might get a usb splitter, i've seen them in asda (wal-mart, for you american dudes) for about £10.

I've looked up usb hubs on the net and they all look pretty alike, can anyone make a recommendation. p.s. my external cdr drive works on usb 2.........

just grab any old hub. Youd be better off going with a powered one, but most of them are anyway.

a hubs a hub, go for an affordable one, a cheapo is likely to be crappy and an expensive one is likely to be a rip off
