Smart Devices Debuts SmartStation: Docking Station for Tablets

Smart Devices (the company behind the SmartQ series of tablets, including the much hyped SmartQ Ten) has unveiled their SmartStation, a portable keyboard designed for docking with tablets, and providing a host of functionality including an ethernet port, USB ports and customised shortcuts for Android. It’s battery powered too (rechargeable and removable) meaning that you may be able to supply power to your tablet via USB if that is supported… yes, USB. The word “docking” here is used very loosely – the SmartStation isn’t so much a dock as it is a tricked out USB keyboard to use with your tablet. Impressive still, but when you hear “dock” you think of something like the LePad. An interesting product but will likely only find niche use.

What seems a little odd to me is that there doesn’t appear to be any stand for a tablet… More images after the break.
