This is why there should be some kind of standardization for Android tablets. Even if it is a dock connector in a certain location of sorts, but many cool things could be produced for them. Same with the phones. I know most phones use the same USB port on them, but if the location changes constantly, its useless.

I am with having a standardization (me and you both used auto correct huh?) of tablets. put the ports in the same spot so i dont have to buy 3 docks with 3 devices.

Too late for all that. Tablets and phones have two things in common: micro usb, and headphone jacks. Give me a "dock" where there is a usb cable and a headphone output cable, and I'll be happy.

Oh, and of course make the dock caddy adjustable to fit multiple sizes of devices.

Yeah, I'm with him^^^^ As long as the dock caddy can support different devices via usb and audio jack with an adjustable caddy, I'm good. I would rather have that than be stuck in the same phone that sorta suits my needs versus having a phone that suits my needs perfectly and a generalized dock.
