Nanovision mimo 7-inch mini monitor

I just came across this today:

[INDENT]A single USB connection from your computer gets you an instant secondary (tertiary, quaternary, quinary...) display. This awesome display is perfect for your IM client, your email, a spreadsheet, or your Photoshop tools. Not only do these displays enhance productivity, but they look great. The single USB connection combined with a weight of 1.3 pounds means these displays are ultra-portable. Drivers are in English and work in XP, XP-64, Vista, Vista 64, and OS X* Take it one step further with the 740 and add touchscreen functionality! Mix and match for the ultimate setup. [/INDENT]
I'm thinking the 740 touchscreen would run CQC Interface Viewer at 800x480 fine and at just $199 not a bad deal. The $129 non-touchscreen option might make a nice display-only (weather map, now playing etc.) cheap screen too.

Thoughts?

They really look cool, but the fact that they work over a USB connection scares me a bit. I wish these had an XPe driver so you could connect them to a thinclient.

I bet you could load up the regular XP driver files if you are using something like the HP t57x0 thin clients.

Just be sure you have enough RAM since it seems that it takes about 50-70mb per screen.

If my wife wouldn't kill me, I'd buy one to play with.

Pretty neat find. I wonder how performant it is... I suspect "not very," but it still may be fine for running a relatively light interface on the IV.

Also doubtful, but I wonder if it would play well with BeTwin. If it did, it would be a pretty cheap way to add remote touchscreen displays to a single PC, using relatively cheap USB-CAT5 extenders.
