The big news here, if you ask me (and thanks for asking!) is the ability to charge this mobile workstation using a USB-C charger. I mean…wow! Huge. Now it’s not going to work with a $15 charger so be sure to note the requirement of PD 3.0 and 20V.
We’ll do our best to get our hands on a demo unit and give you our feedback.
