Do USB HUB Splitters power devices like mouses/keyboards etc?

Would connecting my mouse/keyboard/tablet work when connected to this HUB?
A friend told me charging his iPhone wouldn't work when using his HUB.
That is a non-powered hub. It takes the power from the one port on the computer (5V at 500ma total), and has to split the power to any device using that hub. This is ok for most keyboards/mice, since they use only about 100ma each. However, things using USB to charge, usually want all 500ma for themselves.
What you list is a "splitter". If you charge things, you need a "powered hub", one with an electrical wall plug, so it can supply 500ma to each and every port.
One like:

has a power adapter.

Also, watch out for USB2.0 vs 3.0 speeds. If your machine has USB 3.0 ports, and you want to maintain that speed, you would need a USB 3.0 powered hub, like:

(that one has a US plug, but is universal power supply, you just need a plug adapter)
One final note, most of the powered hubs will also work without the power adapter, provided you do not need the extra power.So, for portable use, you can still plug in keyboard or mouse without the power adapter.
- What's the difference between the different keyboards on iPhone 4? Under settings, and then keyboards, there are different keyboards to choose from. There are "US", "US International- PC", "US Extended", and "British." What's the difference between all of those?
- What are the differences between the English and Spanish keyboards on an iPhone? Other than the fact that "space" is labeled "espacio" and "return" is "intro", I can't tell much of the difference between the two keyboard layouts. Is there anything I'm missing or is that it? I know you can access the different accents and marks by holding on a letter, but that works with both the English and the Spanish keyboard.
