I have one 4-port usb-hub lying around, it has a Genesys Logic chip GL650USB.
All I need is to connect the USB-P & USB-N, gnd. Then provide a external 5v pwr to hub??? Please do let us know any finer details once we can start get the ball rolling.
Bigbop and others, really a BiG thanks for all the hardwork and sharing.
I believe alot of us is reading this thread, although not contributing (we don't want mess it up here!)

Gump, i think you'll need an extra circuit, because i don't think the output from the circuits that we're trying to take the leads from on the 51v are *final* USB Host config. so there's a small transition circuit, then into your host lines on the hub (bigbop/afarre, feel free to correct me if i misunderstand)... other than that, you'll just need to have it be capable of external power... make the right connections, and you're set. :D
though, i'm still a bit foggy on what the "right" connections are... so i'm waiting for afarre or bigbop to complete a working model of the hardware, then we can get the software & do testing... when that's all good, i'll consider voiding my warranty... until then, i'm gonna stick with my 3yr advanced exchange :P as for everyone else, if you don't have a warranty to worry about, as soon as we have working models, go a head, give'er a go.:approve:
