I picked up a Pi 3A thinking a single USB was enough, and quickly discovered it wasn't. I know I can get a USB hub but all I'm seeing there are ones with a cable or super cheap and questionable ones on Amazon. Would really like to avoid a cabled hub as it just makes the install messier but it doesn't look like there are many options for USB hubs that plug in directly.
Came here to see options and found the Zero4U which looks pretty much perfect, but it says it only works with the Zero v1.3. Any hope for getting that to work with the 3A? I can do very basic soldering but that's about the extent of my electrical skills.
I did a quick search for posts on the Zero4U but I didn't see anything about using it on the A models. Thanks!
Using the Zero4U on a Pi 3A?

Re: Using the Zero4U on a Pi 3A?
Could you use a Pi Zero with the Zero4U? The 3A would likely not be compatible since UUGEAR does make a 4-port hub for the Pi 3A it is a different product.
