[Wish] VGA Bluetooth Device

[Bruno Figueiredo]

It would be nice if someone developed a VGA Bluetooth Device so you could plug it in any monitor on the VGA port and it would display whatever was on the PocketPC (on a higher resolution). Just imagine the possiblities...

It wouldn't be as simple as that - the resolution would still be a measley 240×320; even if it was interpolated and resized, it would still look ugly. Plus, you'd need a landscape/portrait switch mode (not all PPCs can do that). We need a decent hardware platform first - like native 640×480 support. I don't see it happening anytime soon, though. Unfortunately.

Cheers,

Except for basic text input and such, the speed of bluetooth would limit the usefullness of a wireless display. I would expect to be able to play games and other applications that require a high refresh rate.

JonnoB is correct. Even WiFi would probably be insufficient as well bandwidthwise to get something like 30fps.
