And is suspect the docks do displayport to hdmi conversion, as there is not enough displayport lanes in a PDMI connector to support DP++ mode.
How on earth could there be a patent on a case? There were already cases for devices that are similar look to these way before ipad. I would understand if the patent was against a case that was the exact same dimensions as ipad but this is 7 inches only and is a more wide screen ratio. Surely it cannot be that no one else is allowed to have a case for an internet tablet.
