MIC Gadget’s new iHub has lawyer bait written all over it. Not only does the four-port USB hub come in the same shape as an Apple TV, it has Apple’s own logo right up there on the top.
The hub really does look like an actual Apple product. The lines are clean, and the cut-out logo actually lights up when you plug it in, just like the logo on the back of your MacBook. Even the packaging is Apple inspired, looking a lot like an oversized iPod Nano box.
The iHub comes in black or white, and also has a little cut-out in the corner for threading it onto a lanyard.
I am posting a gallery of product shots here for a couple of reasons. First, so you can get an idea of just how much “inspiration” the MIC Gadget folks have taken from Apple. And second, as a kind of image archive so you can still see the thing after Apple sics its law dogs in MIC Gadget’s ass. Available now for $10.
