     launch port is according to the manufacturers, first inductive charging system with dock for the Apple iPad 2 tablet. The system designed by Dana Innovations allows the iPad 2 tablet to be attached to a special dock with the help of a case, both equipment having integrated an inductive charging system that allows the tablet to be charged wirelessly. Basically we are talking about 2 docks, one that can be mounted on a wall and one for the desk, both having implemented the same technology, both being able to keep the iPad 2 tablet fixed regardless of the positioning angle.

      Although the Launchport system is more than interesting, the problem lies in the price because the docks cost no less than $200 and the case for the iPad 2 costs another $150, so we are talking about a total cost of $350 for a rather ingenious system. Although the possibility of being able to hang the iPad 2 tablet on the wall and charge it wirelessly is a "dream" for many and seems tempting for the rest, I think the price will be the reason why the Launchport system will be a failure.
