    Can anyone recommend a good docking station for my 9300? Can someone comment on the unit below? I am wondering if the USB connection to the laptop slows down performance.

    I found one by Targus with these specs:
    Manufacturer Part# ACP50US
    Offers 'One Touch' connection to keyboard, monitor/LCD and other external devices connected to a notebook or tablet PC
    Raised notebook platform improves airflow and convection cooling
    Connect your monitor or LCD directly to the docking station without additional cables
    Plug-and-Play connectivity automatically recognizes new USB devices when plugged in without rebooting
    Offers USB 2.0, Serial and Ethernet connectivity
    Includes 6' USB cable and AC adapter

    Thanks,
    Michael

    Is that the Universal with Video? I did a review on that one a while back as well. The video over USB doesn't work very well, if that's something you're looking at.
