Just one? That thing's going up in flames.

Seriously, though, VNC is pretty bandwidth heavy which is a weight you really don't want to have when people are unboxing new tablets and trying to download software. I don't see us being able to get the 100s of tablets that'd be needed to run live demos for everybody on the internet.

A good, easy to use, lightweight SDK would be a better option.
