Hmmm, great idea, but can you (or someone) actually build it? It incorporates everything I want / need in a car dock, but even a prototype might be a bit much to put together.

I could definately build this! But sadly, I'm only 15 and dont have any money to finance a prototype. Anybody interested in financing it? I would buy a pocketdock, do the line out mod into the cigarette lighter, then connect the cigarette lighter to the firewire using another mod, and then enclose the entire thing in flexy metal pipe.

Or someone could just mod the belkin auto kit to fit inside the metal tubing. Whichever would work better.

Should you be giving your ideas such a public airing? Have you taken steps to protect your ideas?

What are you talking about stark23x?

It's not like his ideas are anything special. They've been around for a while.

His "Dashdock" idea has been around for a long time, here's another prototype with basically the same idea...

THIS is what I've been waithing for . . . can't understand why no one has produced it . . . I'd buy one for every car I ride in regularly.
