Try www.dealextreme.com

They have free shipping (although order and shipping takes 3 weeks 
total) and their prices are phenomenally low.

What your friend ment to say is:

you need a usb-mini (Male:=Standard) to Usb-Type A(this is the big flat
one)-FEMALE (same as in your usb-hub) Adapter.
So you can plug  any Device with its standard cable.

There are other solutions, for example a USB-Mini to USB-Type B and an
Hub with that Tyoe B.

No, you need something like this

http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16812150048

and you can find them basically anywhere. I've accrued about 7+ over the 
years, from digital cameras, hubs, cell phones, etc, etc. Even the FR 
came with one.
