Well, interesting. But that's not the regular mini-USB to USB adapter,
so I doubt you can charge the phone and use the keyboard at the same
time with the hub. Maybe with your own cabling (and possible a few
piece of electronics...)
It's a pity that these phones don't come out with a standard (mini,
micro, whatever) USB port. Eventually they will, I guess.

Good luck!
