The dock adding power to the NS is my personal last hope for buying it within its first 2 years.

I was hoping like you, but it doesn't seem to go that way:

"The Nintendo Switch Dock has been created so that it is extremely easy to seamlessly switch from playing games on a TV to transition into a portable mode," a Nintendo representative told IGN.

Nintendo continued: "The dock is not the main console unit of Nintendo Switch. The main unit of Nintendo Switch is the unit that has the LCD screen, which the two Joy-Con controllers can be attached to and detached from. The main function of the Nintendo Switch Dock is to provide an output to the TV, as well as charging and providing power to the system."

The dock won't add nothing to the Switch performance-wise...

Well, then I'll be waiting until it's under $150 because I'm just really, really disappointed in the NS right now.
