Mobile Tech Minutes — ThinkPad Ultrabase Dock for x200 Tablet PC

x200ultrabase01

I have been covering the loaner Lenovo ThinkPad x200 convertible notebook for a while — you can watch a video of the x200 in action here. The x200 has an accessory that is a must-have for the mobile worker, the Ultrabase docking station. In this video I show the Ultrabase with all the various connectors, and show how the x200 goes into the dock. I also show how easy it is to remove the x200 from the dock to take it on the road.

The Ultrabase came with little documentation, and I had to do some research on the web after I shot this video. The bay that I remarked looked like a hard drive bay is in fact that — the Ultrabase can be configured with a hard drive option to increase storage. The little drop-down door that I showed is the coolest feature of the Ultrabase — it allows plugging a second battery directly into the dock for charging along with the internal battery on the x200.
