Thanks to DropBox I can now access what I need from whichever computer I am using and I always have the most current copy. It works but imagine if I could simply keep working on my MacBook but use a standard keyboard, a huge monitor and my Magic Mouse all without having to plug a single thing in! That’s what Source R&D’s new Warpia Easy Dock wireless docking station makes possible.
It looks awesome and that fact that it works with both Mac AND PC out of the box is a huge bonus. With the Warpia Easy Dock you can wirelessly connect your notebook, netbook or Macbook to “any traditional desktop setting”.
The unit’s plug-and-play interface lets you use your desktop speakers, mouse, keyboard and monitor without having to plug all the peripherals in. Instead you simply connect the device’s receiver to your desktop arrangement and then plug the USB dongle to your notebook. Once connected the system sense the image on your notebook to the larger screen with a resolution of up to 1400X1050.
