I'm looking at getting one with a USB hub as well. I would not buy that thing unless the USB hub is powered. I believe there are some cooling pads that you can either use with the AC adapter or with the USB cable (for when you are on the go).

I do not plan to use it while on the go, so I am just looking for one that tilts the pad to make typeing easier (like this one does), and one that has an AC powered USB hub. I don't care if it will power just off of the USB since I never plan to use it while mobile.

So, it depends what you are gonna do with it, but I would not buy the one with the specs you listed above cause it doesn't look like the USB hub has the option to be powered by AC (unless I overlooked something). If that thing does come with an AC adapter and is that cheap, please provide a link. :)
