Revolution stand to double as power supply

It looks like Future Publishing's new Official Nintendo Magazine came through with the goods today as expected. Their "unrivaled access" snagged them one exclusive, and it's a doozy. The Revolution's stand "also acts as a power supply" for the console. This, naturally, raises more questions than it answers.

* What about those patent images? The image of the bottom/right side of the unit revealed a bunch of unknown properties, which we can assume connect the console to the stand, but images of the stand reveal no such connection.
* Will the stand function as a corded power supply if the unit is placed horizontally? There is a power port clearly visible on the back of the unit which may be used to connect the two in this configuration.
* If the unit sits horizontally, will all the funky connectors be visible on the right side of the unit, or will there be a door to cover them? The clean, minimalist design of the Revolution uses doors on both the front and left/top to hide much of the ungainly ports and other visual distractions.

Go Nintendo has scans of what appears to be the whole dang magazine, including the juicy bits regarding the stand.

boh  :confused:

Nintendo has dismissed rumours that the stand shown in pictures of the Revolution will double as its power supply, telling Eurogamer that said rumours are, well, rubbish
