People nowadays laugh at how people in Star Trek always had multiple PADDs and sorted through them like a stack of papers or books, but at the end of the day trying to cross reference several sources to do work on a single iPad can be very frustrating.
- chrishacken 10y agoThere's probably a huge market for super thin portable (wireless) displays. If I could grab a handful of displays and wirelessly link them with my laptop while using gestures to move content between them, I'd probably pay a few hundred dollars per display. (I imagine the drawback of them being wireless would be a really slow refresh rate, so you likely wouldn't be able to watch video on them.) If you placed a magnet on the back of them you can throw one on the wall when you get home and it could detect it's location in the room and start serving as some other systems interface.. like a thermostat or something. Then pick it up on your way out the door and it connects to your phone or laptop.

- chrishacken 10y agoI was thinking something more versatile that could have many different uses, but that's cool none-the-less.
