If the rumors are true and we do not get magnetic charging (bummer), it’s gonna get a little dicey if you regularly use docking solutions in both open and closed mode like I currently do. Of course, I’m using a iPhone Mini and an iPad Mini now that represents these usages, but soon I will need solutions for one device. With the Ultra closed, that’s pretty easy…..it will mean to return to the old Lightning docks that that I still use at home for the iPhone Mini, updated for USB, of course (see first pic). However, docking while open represents a bigger challenge because in landscape mode, the port will be on the bottom right side. When I’m at work, I currently just have my iPad Mini on a stand and just plug in the power cord by hand (see second pic), but this won’t work with the Ultra because the plug will be on the bottom right.

Thoughts?
