I just realized I have a Dock problem. Or, more properly, that I have a different sort of Dock problem than I thought.
I use a 280c. I have a DuoDock. Not a II model, just a Duo Dock. I use it all the time, and it works fine with my 280c.
I just learned that the 280c is not supposed to work with the first Duo Dock. The Dock requires a new lid to work with color-model Duos... or somesuch.
So, how do I use the Dock? (I said I did use it. And it "works fine"...)
Well, when I got the Dock, I thought it was busted. I thought about the problem (it would not grab the Duo), so I reached inside the device and pulled a "grabber" forward. And if I do that each time before inserting the Duo, the Dock does indeed grab the Duo and the Duo fires up just fine from the keyboard.
Should I be worring about this? Have I ruined the Dock for other Duos? Is it absolutely imperative that I replace the Dock with a Dock II?
Or do I have a modified Dock and not know it?
I don't know if it's relevant but there is a Duo Dock Plus, could this be what you have.
