just wondering in this world of wireless, why hasent anyone come up with an idea for wireless monitors? I know there are obvious security concers, but new Digital tft monitors could have a 256bit encrypted key....

i think a wireless monitor would be kick a$$!

what do u think?

I just recently saw a wireless monitor by Viewsonic here. I didn't realize they were affiliated with m$ but you can be sure that other companies with soon follow with similar products.

the main standard is that the monitor is really a flat PC running WindowsCE (it is still around!) using RDP to connect to a PC in another room.

sssh, dont tell m$

Basically they have borrowed a networking protocol to transport the data to and from the basestation and cobbled a pc onto the monitor to do the grunt work.
