The peripheral lets two computers of either platform share any USB printer and automatically detects whichever system is requesting a print job. Power is handled entirely over the USB bus for the switch, which needs a minimum of either Mac OS X Panther or Windows 200 and ships today for $40.

Also on tap is the 4-port USB Net ShareStation, which lets its owner share as many as four typical devices over the local network, including external storage and printers. It connects to the network solely over Ethernet and currently requires a Windows 2000 or later PC to work through its dependence on UPnP support. It ships later this month for $100.
