Last September, we noted that Belkin was showing off a new Thunderbolt docking station at the Intel Developer Forum (IDF), preparing to offer users a single-cable dock connection three USB ports, a Gigabit Ethernet port, and a FireWire port, as well as inbound and outbound Thunderbolt ports for daisy chaining.
Belkin is once again previewing the Thunderbolt Express Dock at CES this week, but has
announced that it will not begin shipping until September of this year and will be priced at $299.
