What I find interesting about this is the Wireless display technology that is going to be on this platform. I think they will push that concept hard. The idea that I can take my phone, sit down at my desk and have it running on the monitor, keyboard and mouse wirelessly ()and hopefully seemlessly) has been a big feature that I have wanted for a while.
- MrEnigma 15y agoI think we're right on the edge of this. Unfortunately so far all the solutions (the Atrix, etc) ended up costing a lot of money just to have the ancillary devices (i.e. dock, etc). If the wireless displays are cheap, and the control interfaces work cheaply as well, it has a chance. Otherwise you are probably better served by having two devices with good syncing.
- dpark 15y agoThe scenario you're describing is actually not the one WiDi is targeting. WiDi targets the computer-to-tv scenario. The idea is that you sit on the couch with your laptop or tablet and the audio and video seamlessly transmit to the TV. I think this (or some equivalent scenario) is eventually going to be ubiquitous, whether it's Intel's implementation or not. The desktop scenario might arrive later, and it might even be doable now, but it's not the target yet.
