can you fit an additional USB port the the MBA?
I love my MBA when I travel, the form factor allows me to slot it wherever a magazine would fit.
BUT when I am (wherever) I so would like to connect my card reader AND a usb drive or such, just having one USB drive is limiting.
Does anyone know, are on the mainboard connections that can be brought out to allow a second USB device to connect?
Carry a HUB - well, then I need a power adapter, and plug converters..
OR can I use a passive hub - any experience?
Thanks in advance

it seems the South Bridge chip in the MBA supports several USB ports that aren't wired to anything...
