DynaDock U10 USB Video Notebook Reaches 1080p

Proprietary notebook docks have become things of the past; they are just laptop vendors' big money sucker that offer zero flexibility. USB docks now hit big time, providing near universal support for laptops, and with the recent DisplayLink USB video innovation, video can now be carried through USB, along with audio other peripherals.

This Toshiba DynaDock U10 notebook dock is going to be the cream of the crop. In addition to boosting universal compatibility, the DynaDock U10 mini-tower the first one to support Full HD (or max. 1920x1200) display via DVI or VGA. As a dock, it offers four USB ports on the back, and two "sleep and charge" USB ports on the front, doubling as an iPod and cellphone charging station even when the notebook is either closed or disconnected. You'll also find built-in 7.1 surround audio, microphone hole, Gigabit Ethernet, and serial 9-pin port. Expect the DynaDock U10 to hit retail during mid-March with a MSRP of £109.99.
