New way to use Pocket PC as remote display

Check this link on a new app for your desktop/pocket-pc called "SideWindow"

http://www.innobec.com/en/products.php

Basically, it lets a Pocket-PC connected to your PC look like another monitor to your PC and windows/apps can be dragged to the PocketPC screen, etc. The cool thing so far I've noticed with it is:

1 - It's FAST - fast enough for general display, etc. anyway - I've got to play a bit and see about video, although I doubt that will be useable.

2 - The coolest thing to me is that the touchscreen-nature of the Pocket-PC screen is supported and looks like actual mouse-clicks to your PC. (meaning if you have say WinAmp on the PocketPC screen, you can just touch the controls and such on the Pocket-PC screen and WinAmp acts accordingly.



Anyone else think this is pretty cool? I'm going to do some more playing with it but it might be a really slick solution for some of us.
