We have been getting teased with the concept of wireless USB technology for a while now. In that regard it seems like everything is finally going wireless. I digress…

Belkin has announced their upcoming 4-port wireless USB hub, the first of many products that will help you connect your USB devices without the cables. The wireless signal works within 30 feet, allowing you to roam around while transferring data, printing documents, or calling data. But remember that you cannot charge your devices via wireless USB, only send/receive data at the USB standard of 480Mbps. This works with printers, camera, scanners, hard drives, and more.

Late August 2007 with launches in Asia, Europe, and Australia to follow, though you will pay a nice price to cut cables: $199.99.
