You can really tell when a product is dominating its sector when companies start building out a wide range of accessories for it. The Apple iPad is one such product, and every day we see more and more cool, weird and downright wacky products released to take advantage of the tablet technology that Apple has perfected.

This Bluetooth Video Conferencing Dock for iPad is one such add-on. Take hold of your beloved iPad 2 or 3, slot it into the top of the dock and watch amazed as the tablet turns into a desktop video phone. The device incorporates a full Bluetooth stack, so you only have to pair the tablet and dock the first time you use them together, and the dock will also charge the iPad while in use.

The unit features a built in speakerphone, but if you want to go completely old school, pick up the handset and talk like it’s 1979. This crazy creature can be yours for $172.95.
