Docked ethernet is not really hard to implement as an add-on, but can be a pain in the butt to get right the first time -- and for many of us, the first time is often the only time.

The method used in the home docks can be adapted for sled use -- basically a precision milled wooden block that positions and holds the RJ45 connector in the Right Place. They're easy enough for me to make, now that the design has been figured out, tried, tested, and true.

I could mill up a bunch of blocks, which people could then just glue into their sled's with cables inserted. "Goop" would work well for this, as would a screw through a hole drilled in the sled. I suppose I could also include an integrated cable and female jack to make things even easier -- pretty much the same as I do in the Home Docks.

The only issue is how to get these to people. I suppose a padded mailer envelope and postage would do it. Total (delivered) cost might be around US$15 or so, which is probably pricey.

Cheers
