Are you really that obtuse? 

Are you really unable to put a comment into context? 

Where is your common sense?

Welcome to the internet.

The EU wants back doors to encryption, the EU wants consumer privacy, the EU wants open App stores, the EU wants to ban chatGPT, the EU wants open standards, the EU wants a single charging cable, the EU wants to be on the technological cutting edge, the EU wants to regulate and fine large technology companies to death.

Seems like the motivation is always more related to anti-Americanism than clear dispassionate thinking.

Oh grow up.  The EU wants sensible market regulation for the benefit of its people.  If that's the antithesis to the USA's individualist approach then the USA will just have to lump it if it wants to do business in the EU.  The EU has no obligation to make anything easy for big tech companies from the USA just because nerds on the internet get upset. If the USA wants to retaliate with vindictive counter regulations against EU businesses then so be it, but pettiness wins no one any sympathy.

Very rude.

This is designed for shared desks. In some offices, workspaces (including desks) are shared. This dock not only provides the connectivity to the desk's hardware (display, keyboard, mouse, etc.) but also provides an interface to reserve the desk for specific times. That schedule is then shown on the display, among other things.

Is it expensive? Yes. Does it solve a niche problem? Yes. Is it for everyone? Absolutely not.

I get it, but it seems a company can just setup a calendar for scheduling shared desk usage for free.  If you don't have access to this gadget, you'd have to reserve it some other way than the fancy screen, right?

I setup 4 stations at a client office that is used for mobile workers who visit the office.  A shared Outlook calendar does the trick.

My office has entire floors of hotdesks, hundreds of them.  A shared Outlook calendar very much would not do the trick.

Apparently, then, hundreds of $700 docks will do the trick?

We already have a hotdesking management system in place.  Not Logitech Sync, but similar.  I imagine these docks would definitely be of some interest, though moreso if we were already invested in Logitech Sync; it's in the company's interest to make working from the office as frictionless as possible, and $700 isn't all that much when lots of our consultants are on 4 figure hourly rates, so saving them time and effort means more time spent on client billable work.

Companies with lots of high cost, mobile workers will pay out to keep people working rather than faffing around with admin to ensure they have a desk and its in proximity to their co-workers.  And there's a lot of such companies around, getting in with even just one of the McKinseys, Accentures, Deloittes, PWCs, or any of the others would probably justify the product on its own.

Ok I will make simple for you. Apple will launch this and very few will care.
