I have used those $9 Chinese 3 port USB hub with Ethernet on the Beagle Board, and they work surprisingly well. The old Beagle Board doesn't have an RJ45 on it. In fact, I use them in embedded systems, I break open the housing, cut off the USB jacks and mount the board against the box so the RJ45 sticks out. These should work fine on the Bone, as well, if you need an extra Ethernet. They will probably show up as network device usb-1 instead of eth0.
