"With the philosophy this device is build upon, local storage is not needed, high battery life and low price is wanted, so one usb is ok."
And of course nobody would ever want to print anything or upload photos from their camera to this device while using the mouse at the same time.

Exactly. Where "nobody" means "vanishingly small so there's no need to worry about it."
And even that tiny sliver of people will upgrade their dinosaurs to connect via wifi and bluetooth. A few months ago I bought a hl-2270dw and love it. No need to set up printer sharing and always-on computers.
Don't worry, you won't miss those extra USB ports much.

Arg, that was supposed to say "Brother hl-2270dw laser printer".

The only reason I can think of for vanishingly small number of people wanting to load photos onto their browser-only netpad is, a vanishingly small number of people bought the thing.
