    Hey all,

    Does anyone have experience with the docking options for the x220 Tablet?

    I think the website only lists the Ultrabase Series 3 as compatible, whereas the x220 (non tablet) is compatible with both the Ultrabase Series 3, as well as the Mini Dock Series 3.

    Does anyone have first hand knowledge on if the x220 Tablet is physically compatible with the Mini Dock Series 3? (I know the docking connector should be compatible, what I'm worried about is like the corner alignment and whatnot.. does it not physically fit onto the mini dock series 3, which is why they left it off the compatibility list? or was this just a mistake on their part and the x220t is actually compatible with it?

    The reason I'm looking at the minidock series 3 is because of the dual Displayport outs on the back of it..

    Edit:

    Actually, the minidock plus page: http://www-307.ibm.com/pc/support/site.wss/MIGR-72873.html says that x220 compatability is "All"

    Is the x220 tablet considered part of the x220 line? Or is it a different line?

    They seem to differentiate between the general x220 and the tablet line on this page: http://www-307.ibm.com/pc/support/site.wss/document.do?lndocid=MIGR-4TPJF4
    Listing the Ultrabase Series 3 as compatible with "X220, X220t, X220 Tablet" (yea I know thats redundant, but thats exactly what the page says)
