    I came across a review for this Samsung monitor[^] in a magazine. Any one think of a sensible use for the little satellite monitor, especially as it seems to add roughly £100 to the price of similar single monitors. The only thing I can think of would be for my EMail client permanently on view.

    Email or if you were having a video conference with someone putting their image on that screen are the only applications I can think of. I write mobile software, so maybe having the emulator running might be useful.

      I have a mind that is permanently stuck in the gutter and I was about to berate you for coming dangerously close to breaking the kid-sister rule. Bravo Henry, bravo.

        If badly cramped for space perhaps. A stand to hold two normal screens vertically's just as expensive as the gimmic, but otherwise IMO a screen that small's only really useful for mobile/embeddedish applications. You can get a cheap 19" monitor for about the same price, much better if you have the space for it.

                                    I'd want three on each side of the monitor (CP, email, calendar, calculator, chat, help...) I'll have to ask the wife if she'd want several 7 inchers or just the one.

                                        If badly cramped for space perhaps. A stand to hold two normal screens vertically's just as expensive as the gimmic, but otherwise IMO a screen that small's only really useful for mobile/embeddedish applications. You can get a cheap 19" monitor for about the same price, much better if you have the space for it.

                                        Today's lesson is brought to you by the word "niggardly". Remember kids, don't attribute to racism what can be explained by Scandinavian language roots. -- Robert Royall

                                        I would just get a bigger monitor. I mean for $425 you can get a 25.5".

                                          give me your email, and I'll forward it to some "friends" of mine; they will send you all the information you need to get up to 9 inch. ;P
