Cassette Tape USB Hub

Cassette Tape USB Hub

After having seen the classic cassette tape in the shape of a USB drive and MP3 player, you will now be able to take a walk down memory lane using it as a 4-port USB hub.

Now you can power up all your myriad of USB devices with a blast from the past. There may no longer be tape hanging randomly from telegraph poles around the country anymore, but the icon can live on on your desktop.

Features

  • A 4 port USB 2.0 Hub in the shape of a classic cassette tape.
  • Its retro styling looks so realistic you’ll have to stop yourself from trying it in your walkman.
  • This is not a real cassette tape and attempts to play it in a cassette player could cause serious damage to your stereo and the hub.
  • Size: 97 x 61cm

The 4-port Cassette Tape USB Hub is available over at the I Want One Of Those website for £12.99 (about $23 USD).

    All it is is a USB hub? I’m kind of disappointed, because I was hoping it was like a flash drive. I’d buy that.

    Carlos, I’m afraid I only know of the shop linked to in the article.

    Maybe someone else knows of a store that sells the “Cassette Tape USB Hub” and can ship to Mexico?

    Mexico is totally safe for the average visitor. The problems are only inside the government and the Cartel. They very rarely rollover into the tourist or the people!
