Yeah, but you can plug those in your external TB drive. It's really only a problem if you own more than one "end" device that doesn't daisy chain.
Got a tip for us?

Unless you want to drive two external displays without buying a Thunderbolt display. Or have an external display and a TB->Ethernet adapter (assuming Apple releases one).
Edit: Another thing is that while you can daisy chain many devices to one thunderbolt port, that doesn't mean that you can't exceed the bandwidth of a single port with those devices.

So you can have 2 external monitors that aren't Thunderbolt Displays.
Or use a Thunderbolt accessory (I guess there will eventually be some) while connected to an external display that isn't a Thunderbolt Display.

Make a 5x5 board with the different things listed in the OP (and an additional 8 to give 25 total).
As you notice people saying them, fill in the space on the board - and then whoever gets bingo first wins!
