The Samsung Galaxy S III, and later Galaxy Note II and Galaxy S4, use an adapter and Micro-USB socket with six additional connector pins in order to achieve functional improvements over the 5-pin design:
It supports the use of USB and MHL simultaneously. (Note that the new Samsung 11-pin MHL-HDMI adapter also has a USB On-The-Go port).
What we need is an Intel/Linux Haswell based mobile. I've been unable to find any MHL transmitter packages with the bandwidth to do more than 1080p@60Hz, and that just kind of seems limited/lowest common denominator.

As soon as Edge is in my hand, i'd still be looking for an enthusiast, converged device that could drive 2560x1440 at least
