If I had to make a bet I'd say you will never see similar products
again.  Simply because interfaces like USB 2, WiFi, and Bluetooth mean
you can do most of that stuff over standard connectors rather than
requiring a specialized dock.  The economics of a two-piece computer
like the old Duo just doesn't make sense these days.

Subject: MacGroup: Any product plans for modern-era Duo-Dock?


To anyone with product foreknowledge (or a crystal ball in their
pocket);

Are there any product plans at Apple for a modern-era Duo-Dock? 

You know, that 'old fashioned' idea of a laptop with a desktop docking
 station for recharging, external devices, monitors, etc.

??

Why was the old one was discontinued, anyway?

Regards,
Russ Preston
