[Ti] Bookendz dock for TiBook?

[Read Weaver]

The Bookendz people still have them at $100

BookEndz_Dock_for_the_2002_PowerBook_G4_1.html
I got one a few months ago (new) through Amazon, for $60--I see two  
there right now, one new and one used, neither from the same company  
I bought mine from. The power adapter is a little wonky (sometimes my  
TiBook doesn't think it's plugged in and runs on battery--it seems  
that plugging in the power adapter (to the dock), opening the  
computer, inserting it into the dock, and then turning the computer  
on usually allows it to find the power cord; sometimes I have to turn  
the computer off and repeat that for it to work. (It's also possible  
it's just random, but eventually it's worked.)). Otherwise everything  
I've tried works ok (2 USB ports, firewire, DVI, ethernet--there are  
some additional ports I haven't used). I got it to avoid bending pins  
anywhere, so far it's worked fine. Nothing like the electronic  
connections on newer computers/docks, it's just mechanical and takes  
a fair amount of force to seat it--but it's well enough designed that  
it seats smoothly.
