century 3-in-1 usb dock almost turns your netbook into a laptop

While it can’t do anything about your netbook’s tiny screen and weak processor, Century’s 3-in-1 USB dock does add 2 USB ports and a Panasonic DVD/CD burner combo drive, as well as a couple of extra features that laptops don’t have.

The dock also has an internal 2.5″ SATA connector for extra HDD/SSD storage, as well as a tiny fan to help your little friend stay cool. If you don’t want to use the fan, you can tuck it into the dock’s body so it stays out of the way.

The dock is just over 10″ wide and about 7.5″ long, so it’ll go best with 10″ netbooks. The product site also states that the dock requires Windows XP/Vista.

The Century 3-in-1 dock sells for ¥9,980 ($101.40 USD). You can order one at Century’s online shop, although I think it’s Japan-only at the moment.

    this is a great product.

    if it comes to america, i’d buy one– i don’t use a netbook, but i’ve got a laptop with a busted cd drive and a pretty small amount of storage space.
