Tape Dispenser with USB Hub, too much Convergence?

It seems that just about every possible desktop accessory is now endowed with USB ports. Case in point is this tape dispenser that has three USB ports. The image clearly shows four USB ports, but one if them is obviously the connection to the computer. You can connect flash drives, mice and other USB peripherals directly to your tape dispenser for use. Cool in an ugly sort of way. I’m not too sure about this device, I don’t see myself walking into Office Depot, and thinking, wow I must have that tape dispenser. Overall size is a largish 17” x 11” and the device is designed with co branding in mind as evidenced by the 2 ¾” x 1 ¼” imprint space. No word on pricing or why they felt we needed a tape dispenser with a USB hub built in.
