Q: Just Made the switch from PC to a 27" iMac. USB Ports full !

After adding my iPhone charger, my Printer, a superdrive and the Bose Companion 5 speakers, my USB ports are full! Any good HUBs out there or other connection solutions? Not sure what the Thunderbolt connections are for, except additional monitors?  Is it possible to adapt those to USB 3.0?

 

I've been considering the Logitech Keyboard to pick up the numeric keypad but it requires a USB port as does my DSLR. Right now I remove the SD card from the camera, but firmware updates are a pain since I have to reach around the back of the iMac and choose one of the cables to temporarily remove. Not sure what others are doing to silve this problem and I know hubs can be buggy...
