Docking Station for the TG01??

---

Is there a docking station on the market that would suit the TG01? I'm thinking in terms of a d.s. that would allow the phone to disply on a regular screen - and allow moust/keyboard functionality.....

Well you can plug a regular usb keyboard into it with the micro usb adaptor that came with the phone. Not sure about getting the picture onto a monitor though.

Yes, I have been doing this for the past 12 months. However, not even close to being as efficient at knocking out emails as if I had a full screen and mouse.

I was thinking in terms of something like this.


However, I wondered whether there was an alternative on the market? It's probably still worthwhile for my purposes - but it's not cheap by any stretch of the imagination. I guess there are not enough folks with a real need for something like this...hence, it's a niche product - with niche product pricing.

An alternative approach would be to use a software interface - eg. Pocket Controller Pro which enables you to put a window onto a main PC screen and to use the main keyboard with your TG01.

Appreciate that Kevin. Food for thought. It's not a possibility exactly in the specific situation that I have in mind (I have no admin rights on the pc/workstation - so can't install software).

However, it could be useful in a different set of circumstances - so thanks for the suggestion.
