MicroNet miniMate

MicroNet:
The miniMate, MicroNet's new external disk drive and port replicator, is created specifically to complement Apple's new Mac Mini. With available storage up to 400GB, 4 USB 2.0 ports and 3 FireWire ports, the miniMate extends the capabilities of your new Mac to match the most capable workstations, all in a stylish aluminum and plastic enclosure that perfectly complements Apple's Mac Mini!

Product Features:
- up to 400GB additional storage
- 3 FireWire ports
- 4 USB 2.0 ports
- Attach power, USB and FireWire cable and you're ready to rock!

The miniMate offers hub functionality for both USB and FireWire. As long as a FireWire connection is present, the disk drive will mount as a FireWire device; otherwise, it will mount as a USB device.
This thing looks great, and is even reasonably priced for what it is, assuming it isn't too loud. I was wondering when nice looking, stackable Mac mini accessories would begin appearing.
