Flex your USB devices

Many desktops and notebooks place their USB ports in odd locations, causing devices to jut out or fit uncomfortably when connected to the PC.

Xmultiple has solved this problem with its FlexUSB Adapter, an adjustable USB port that lets users fit their devices more properly. The adapter works with both Windows and Macintosh computers, is compatible with USB 2.0 devices, and offers a one-year warranty, the company said. The adapter is available at retailers such as Fry's Electronics, Micro Center, J&R, Amazon.com and USConnex.com.
