Guys? Hey guys? Are we sure about this tablet craze? Tablets are the way we're going? Because I see stuff like this Onkyo iOnly BASS Dock Music System and I think, "Oh, that's pretty cool. A docking system with a 30-pin connector, 4-inch woofers, and 40 watts of output." But couldn't you have fit that sort of thing onto, say, a laptop or a PC?

Don't get me wrong, it's a cool docking station. But when you've got to dock your tablet to things to make it function, I can't help but wonder if maybe you didn't need a tablet in the first place.

Then again, you've already sunk a couple hundred bucks into a tablet, so you might as well get some use out of it.Amplifier:Power Output:20W + 20W
