So does it charge on a PC if the USB can handle it?

I haven't seen any reports on a working PC charge yet.

Another annoyance is the docking base. If it needs so much USB power why don't 
they give that a separate PSU and just use the USB as a data link. I am feeling 
I wasted $30 on the dock.

I know I have complained a lot but on the whole the iPad is a good experience.

Gotta love Apple's version of the "razor and blades" strategy with all those
"must-have" accessories, Apps, and content (music and video).  Except in
Apple's case, they make a ton of money on BOTH the razor and the blades.
