AFAIK, it won't work.  I tried it with my Duo 210 and DuoDock (1) and the
screen just lit its backlight...no picture.  I'm sure there's a connection
to bypass the onboard screen and display the image through the monitor port
on the dock.  Maybe if someone (cough **MAD DOG** cough) could figure out
which wire is connecting the thing, and maybe undo the solder to test it, we
would stop be able to bring world peace and stop this thread.
