6550b w/NZ222AA, best way to interface two HP2275w monitors and use the laptop screen

I have a HP-NZ222AA-230w docking station with a HP-6550B ProBook and  2-HP-2275w screens.  What is the Best way to connect the two monitors and still use the Laptop screen?  I purchased this docking station thinking no additional peripheral equipment would be required.  Suggestions recommendations.

Unless you purchase something that will let you add a VGA or DVI port  to connect the 2nd monitor via USB or expresscard, you will have to use just the two external monitors and give up the notebook screen. This is the most you will be able to get out of your configuration, and I think it's nothing to be ashamed of!

 

There are a few laptops with AMD graphics that will allow three monitors to be used, by combining the CPU's graphics card with AMD eyefinity technology.
