hey guys every Elijah Gadget Hunter here
0:09
with cam.com at macworld 2013 on the
0:12
prow for new gadgets and I found
0:13
something that you have probably heard
0:15
about for the last oo I don't know 10
0:18
months we've actually covered it on
0:19
camac I'm at the Balon booth and we have
0:22
the balcon Thunderbolt Express dock it's
0:25
made of a nice shiny aluminum and um
0:28
Dennis why don't you tell us what what's
0:30
so special about this fancy Gadget well
0:32
with a MacBook Air for example you have
0:34
uh limited ports on it that you do so
0:38
you can connect one Thunderbolt uh port
0:41
and then you run it to the back Y and
0:42
then you can daisy chain out to other
0:44
Thunderbolt devices so tell us what
0:46
connections you have on the back of this
0:47
guy so it also allows you to have
0:49
gigabyte ethernet fire wire 800 3 USB
0:53
3.0 ports you can hook up your speakers
0:56
your microphone your headphones um and
0:59
all through cable it's actually pretty
1:01
remarkable the cable has a channel on
1:03
the bottom here and this thing like I
1:05
said is made of aluminum it feels really
1:06
nice and it looks kind of like an Apple
1:08
product it does it it it matches and
1:11
looks very nice on the desktop
1:12
industrial designers worked very hard at
1:15
this and for very long cuz as I said
1:17
we've been covering this for a while but
1:18
it's finally going to be available
1:19
you're saying at the end of this month
1:20
end of this month price point is going
1:22
to be $2.99 probably available
1:24
