When using the mini dock with the t41p, are the 4 usb 2.0 ports discrete from one another? i.e. can all 4 ports run at the 400mbs, or is it divided up (i.e. 4 devices = 100mbs each)? Anybody have any info on this?

As far as I know it is a hub. But it does not mean that each runs at 100 Mbps. When you use each one at a time you should get maximum throughput, and as you add more devices bandwidth will be shared accordingly.

so there wouldn't really be much of a difference if i got the mini dock or a port replicator ii with a usb hub attached to it?

yep.

One thing is that if you use ipod it is difficult to work through a hub. It works if you connect direclty to the computer.
