And the Sonnet docking station is interesting in that it is still not available to ship to anyone...
Sonnet seems to have a reputation of announcing conceptual products that make a lot of sense to the marketplace, yet fails to deliver. The docking station with internal blu-ray drive was announced at NAB this past April, and only a photo was shown in their booth. No actual prototype. They repeated the HW vaporware again last week at the Intel Developers forum and this week at the International Broadcasting conference, but doing a little better showing a Thunderbolt 2 PCIe expansion chassis. Nice sign, but no actual working prototype being shown. Need to get their PR and marketing people aligned with their development engineers.
Not sure what benefit they get other than headlines.
