Belkin Cable-Free U Hub available for purchase this month

Belkin's award-wi ing wirele U hub is finally expected to be available this month, after several delays. According to Belkin's pre release earlier today, the Cable-Free U Hub will be available for purchase mid-December, for $199 USD. We first told you about the Belkin Cable-Free U hub back in January when they were demoing in at Macworld. It's a 4-port U hub that uses Ultra-Wideband (UWB) technology, based on the Wisair chi et, and needs no drivers to deliver high rate, high quality tra fers - up to 480M for U 2.0 devices - making it perfect for wirele streaming HD video and audio, as well as communicating with printers, sca ers, cameras and other U devices up to 30 feet away without being tethered to them. The only thing you're tethered to is a small U dongle.

The hub will launch in the US first, with launches in Asia, Europe, and Australia to follow "at an indefinite date, pending re ective country's regulatory a rovals."

Yup, I still want one, de ite the price jumping from $130 to $190. Bring it on, Belkin... Bring. It. On.
