He's talking about the original topic of this thread... of a USB 3.0 *TO* Thunderbolt Adaptor...
What you have with Kanex is a Thunderbolt to USB/eSATA adaptor...
The original topic was about a Thunderbolt to USB 3.0 adapter:
I am surprised that I still cant find a simple Thunderbolt to usb 3 adapter online! I know apple don't make one, yet they make a firewire and ethernet adapter.
Does anyone know if any third party adapters exist?
I know that some docking station hubs have been released but I only need one port and don't want to pay a few hundred dollars to add USB 3 to my 2011 Mac Mini.

Brilliant thanks! I have been waiting for this for ages! I emailed Kanex about 6 months ago and they said they were developing one, finally it's not far off!

This simple usb 3.0 adapter is on its way!

Hopefully it is full 5Gbps and not 2.5Gbps like the overpriced belkin hub.
Thanks to Genea for finding this!
At some point a USB 3.0 to thunderbolt adapter was discussed too, but that was not what the OP asked.
