So, Nokia have been working on their own host software platform to allow Internet Tablets and S60 smartphones to communicate with DisplayLink-enabled technology then?

I refuse to deny what's in any CPU spec. :p :D

I don't believe that one. Karel doesn't write one word out of three in bold case, and besides most of what he says makes sense :-)

this is very cool. You can now use your pocket device for nearly everything. You wake up in the morning grab your n810 and check the news. You go outside to your car pop it in the holder and use it as gps with traffic updates. You get to work and set it on your desk and attach a bluetooth keyboard/mouse and use this noBounds to send the display to your work monitor. Then you go home and play quake. Hmm they should make a commercial like that lol.

at both the car and the desk one can insert a charger, same action when going to bed.

now, if nokia had allowed it to charge via usb or provided some kind of docking port so that one could have two desk docks (bedside, office) and a car dock things would really be interesting.

hell, the car dock could have come complete with a external controller, like the one found on some third party car stereos.

I was just kidding Textrat :)

Have you checked out the "Nokia Power Pack DC-1"

http://europe.nokia.com/A4487188

I haven' tried this myself, but might be useful especially for longer trips.

I have one of these. It claims to put out 20W for 4 hours, but it should power a tablet longer than that. There's also a bigger one. A USB charger for the tablet should work better than using the AC charget, but I don't have one.
