Make sure you test your specific VPN connections as well during your trial period, as there are some that don't work.

You'll also want ot look at x11vnc, which makes the screen display of the N900 visible over VNC, so you can look at it from your laptop...

There no point to get HDMI that can pipe 1920x1080 (2.1MPx) instead of 720x576 (415KPx), when N900 has a 800x480 (384KPx) display.

There's just a few pixels on each side that don't fit and I'm pretty sure they are pushed in via anamorph.

Unless you get at least megapixel display (720p), HDMI is a complete waste, a drain on battery, weight, computing power and more stuff to break - ignoring the fact that HDMI connectors are complex, large and the cables are rigid relatively, making it an easy thing to break.

The only thing that's keeping HDMI from being taken into the woods and shot is the fact that it pipes HD video and audio with zero loss. Heh.

OP, I can't see the Standard Definition output of the N900 cutting it as a desktop replacement, small fonts will be unreadable. Try before you buy.

Already tried.

When I tried the TV out with a fairly high quality HD capable display the quality was pretty rough. OKish for video, but I wouldn't want to use a terminal that way. It would actually be more comfortable using the N900's internal screen.

You will actually find that the video will look better on a SD TV - most HD TV's do a terrible job of up-sampling SD video. Furthermore the comb filters (filter that separates the luma and croma in the composite signal) in modern TV's are really bad these days so composite video really suffers on them.

This is the bit I wanted.

I think I shall have to test it first hand in a shop; It is extremely unlikely that I shall watch videos on it!.

The primary purpose is for browsing, VPN connections, displaying applications like EMC Control Center and EMC Networker over tsclient (RDC), along with some VNC displays, and Lotus Notes over tsclient(RDC). Its a work tool for remote support. I unsure if the n900 is suitable for this work: Best to try in a shop... I hope they sell televisions as well. he he

Many thanks for the replies.
You had the time to search this applications but you couldn't find a N900 tv-out video? ... there are tons in youtube, here's one, i think N900 performs really good http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EYgiO...eature=related
