I hacked this out of necessity (need to use it from some Python code deployed on Linux), but in the course of this I determined that it's a tremendously useful device for hacking USB devices as well. Due to it just being a network device, it's trivial to snoop on the wire, modify data to/from devices, and even completely emulate a device. I'm planning on releasing a toolkit for USB device hacking based around this hub and its drivers soon, although I'm torn between opening it and selling it.
