Attribute it to falling prices or more powerful parts, but not matter how you slice it, we're living in an increasingly mobile world. Notebook sales are booming, and the netbook craze is in full force. Perhaps poised to take advantaged of this mobile make up, Targus has announced a new dock called the Targus USB 2.0 Docking Station with Video.
The docking station "provides an ergonomic tilt for a comfortable typing angle and also keeps the laptop elevated, providing ventilation while in use." In terms of functionality, the dock includes four USB 2.0 ports (two of which can be used for charging devices), a DVI port for connecting to a monitor at up to a 2048 x 1152 resolution, an Ethernet port, and a speaker-out and a microphone-in port.
The whole thing connects to your laptop via USB and is compatible with Windows 7, Vista, and XP. Not a bad little add-on for the $160 asking price.
