One of the guys on my devlopment team was teaching a class on these last
month and had one of the students break their end also.  Looks like someone
overlooked the characteristics of mobile computing, much like they did with
the Port Replicator (no support when TPad legs are used).  All in all
though, I really like the new AC Adaptor.  It takes up a lot less space in
my case, and anything that takes up less space has got to be good thing.
