too funny that Engadget speculated that "it's not likely to arrive in a product yet" and here it is a week later

I'm assuming there will be some other accesories coming that can work over the port. speakers etc Im hoping for a large monitor with a dock at the base so you can simply set the tablet onto the dock and have a larger display to work with at the desk and still use the tablet as a second monitor(with out the need for plugging in an hdmi cable)
It wouldn't surprise me to see a docking station, complete with user interface (monitor, keyboard, mouse), extra storage, more ports, etc. etc. And sooner rather than later. MS is touting this thing as being a PC as well as a tablet. Just having a keyboard cover doesn't make it a PC.

Much like the docking stations available for many laptops today.
