Furthermore, the fact that it has its own 60W power supply, the displaylink adaptors, etc, makes me think that this will be broadly compatible with other laptops out there other than the MacBook.

Go quick to secure a super early backer spot (79 instead of 179).

The company has a track record of previous device releases, it has a mix of both USB-A and -C ports, ethernet built in, and it provides its own power source.

Plugable Displaylink Portable As The

Its nowhere near as pretty or portable as the Hub, but it seems far lower risk and more functional.

It has absolutely everything, and takes advantage of all the new technologies the MB has to offer.

Also love how they do a feature comparison with the Hydradock and Hub.

I just want an ultra portable mini-hub the fits in my ultra portable MBs casebag, like the KADi port: I think out of these four the KADi is the best for portability and this Plugable stationary dock is the best for a desktop dock.

If I had need for a robust desktop dock in addition to the portable mini-hub, I would definitely be backing this.

For me, the Hub is sort of a tweener and the Hydradock is just bad.

Also, appreciate the mention of our track record regarding delivering on our promises in the past and providing quality service when needed - we love getting feedback letting us know were on the right track.

Howdy guys, long time listener lurker, first time caller poster.

For France, we used Amazon s FBA network for our successful Pro8 docking station Kickstarter last year.

When we use FBA, we import the goods to the EU ourselves and have to pay VAT (20), then ship from Amazon warehouse to you.

If we ship individual orders direct from USA, we can leave VAT up to you, but shipping cost is much higher.

Were definitely planning stretch goals as things get closer to funded.

See our previous Pro8 Kickstarter if youre curious about the kind of things we might do.

Thanks for your original mention of us here, and please let me know if anyone has any questions at all about the Plugable Ultimate USB-C Dock in the Kickstarter -- its been a challenge finding the right set of specs and components to deliver on them, but were really excited that were able to offer a better alternative than whats out there now.

Plugable Displaylink Driver Issues With

Theres always lag, and every time theres an OS update, there seem to be driver issues with them.

Plus, how many people actually really want to run 3 displays from their rMB If someone says I do well then you should definitely back this Kickstarter But I dont think most do.

I understand the benefits of this, but for me, Id rather utilize the USB-C power passthrough.

All in all, I agree with the comments that this will likely be a high quality dock, as the company has a history of delivering good products.
