I'm interested to get more info on how this docking solution works. To my understanding your external monitor, speakers, wireless keyboard dongle all plug into the back of the usb replicator then I would plug a single usb cable to the x300?

Thanks

The VGA output support "up to 1280 x 1024 in 16-bit color."
In addition, I am experincing a noticable delay (<1s) of the display on the external LCD than that on the notebook LCD.

the onboard VGA supports 2048x1536 @ 32-bit color. the USB replicator is supposed to support 1400x1050 but doesn't specify bit depth.

if you're noticing a significant lag between displays then you should use the onboard VGA port for optimal results.

Has anyone used the usb replicator with a wireless usb hub? I think it would be an interesting use of the built in wireless usb if it works.
