Can anyone recommend a USB 2.0 Hub?

I purchased a Belkin 2.0 USB Hub and it was DOA.
After I called and complained, they sent me another one. That worked for a good week, before crapping out.
I returned the one they sent me to the place I'd purchased the original, to swap out for the same hub. It worked for 10 days, then crapped out.
I doubt that I'll get another hub/product from Belkin, ever. Can anyone recommend a USB 2.0 Hub? Since my PC Card slots are empty, would it be better to just purchase a USB card? Are those more reliable than the hubs?

Yeah. It leaves a bad taste. Hell, it's been over 50 days since I returned the first bad one and they haven't even refunded my account yet.
