Dock station for Nokia770/N800

Hi,

I have a hardware feature request/question. Since Nokia770/N800 is used as
control device for music and home control systems -

http://wiki.slimdevices.com/index.cgi?SlimserverAndNokia770, it'd be nice to
have a dock station for the internet tablet. Is Nokia team planning to
create it?

I like that idea. Then I could simply hook it into my KVM switch (if a
docking station had a DVI connector for the monitor). Yeah! :-)

Michael,

from the beginning of my awareness of the Internet Tablet form factor
product ~2 years ago I have been thinking about how a docking station
could be created for exactly the purpose you mention, i.e.."...as
control device for music and home control systems". What I would like to
see is a docking station that could either be

a) used as a free standing device cradle, or, alternatively,

b) mounted in a shallow recessed wall box with AC power where the
device could be easily "unmounted" for handheld use.or
alternatively, left in the wall box and used while mounted.

With proper foresight a savvy mechanical designer, I think, could come
up with a design that could be worked into both of the above applications.
