    VGA out is possible with the tablets. It's been done using the Targus docking station. However, framerates were an issue.

    I'm interested to see with the new MER using Xorg if the USB-VGA becomes a more viable option than just a picture show.

    Some wrote why not use DVI instead of VGA. The requirement is that it can output to an external LCD / TV etc. I don't care if its s-video, so long as I can plug it into the LCD at work and the LCD at home!

    However, IS HSPA more of a money spinner or is it VGA/DVI out. HSPA benfits the clients and the mobile telephone operators, wheras VGAout competes with the netbooks. The choice is not ours but that of Nokia.

    HDMI works just fine for hooking up to TVs.

    Alright Textrat, I'll bite.

    I've seen the thread for the USB2BGA connector (which also had a frame rate issue), but haven't seen anything on the Targus docking station. Any link or additional information you can send us?

    Is it something like that ?

    Interfestingly, it's sold as an accessory for the n800.

    That's the one, deb.

    It works well as a tablet accessory. As I showed in the wiki page (under Tested Devices), it can be used as a LAN connector for one, as well as USB hub. But there was also some testing of its VGA-out capability for the tablets and while it functioned, it's my understanding that anything other than a static display rendered poorly.
