Manufacturers are rushing to get in-wall iPad docks to market, but so far we haven't seen much. We've seen tabletop docs for iPad, and we've seen in-wall stations for the iPod. We've also seen the slick iPad in-wall from Savant.

Now we finally have a picture of the forthcoming CM2000 in-wall iPad dock from iPort.

Keith Rose of Inspired Electronics, Palatine, Ill., posted the above photo on RemoteCentral.com.

He says, "The iPad looks really cool in the wall. Very flush, paintable bezel, solid construction. They did a nice job on it."

The CM2000 will retail for $499. Currently, dealers are debating the price of the dock in the "comments" section of our original story.

iPort's Jason Sloan points to market research that indicates $499 is "solidly in line with where our dealer base wanted and expected the products to price out."

Savant's product is priced at $350.

Both products will be demonstrated at CEDIA Expo 2010.
