In fact I'm using hub that cost me 3$ - bought new from Internet store, with few other things. Still, it's working reliably with Hi-speed (2.0 - measured with adequate tools), and of course provide possibility to charge N900 without Y-Cable (in the same time isolating power plug from mainline of USB - i tested it they way joerg_rw suggested. IDK how it works, but still, it works and N900 is properly charged during hostmode).

So, i would filter GOOD/BRAND out, and just leave GOOD

trisha02 - You probably need to enable extras-testing repository, while You just have extras enabled.

http://wiki.maemo.org/Extras-testing <- in this article, You'll find all information about this repository, with instruction how to enable it. Don't be scarred by all that things about blowing brain, frying dog etc - of course this usual warnings apply as always, but extkbd is pretty stable and it should be in extras for a long time (probably, too less people cared to vote).

To be on safe side, You can just disable extras-testing after that - ho ever, You will need to enable it or even extras-devel every time You want to install something that doesn't reside in extras (or extras-testing). Ho ever, if You use such things as HEN, You're probably not so easily scarred by "beta" packages, aren't You?
