FireWire to combat overcrowded USB hubs

Virtually every device released these days come with a USB connector of some sort, leaving even the most well equipped user running short on USB ports at times. The advent of USB-powered toys could also crowd out ports that could be put to better use, such as hooking up a thumb drive. OCZ Technologies has devised a solution that helps alleviate this problem by offering a tiny portable hard drive that hooks up to your FireWire port since most modern computers have at least one free FireWire port that goes to waste. Pricing and availability details are unknown as at press time.
