Why would that be better? There's plenty of ways to do that already.
This is pretty sweet as-is. I've been looking forward to an app that can do this.
It's like a commercial version of Veency for the iPhone. I've been wanting something like that for Android, it's extremely convenient for typing out texts while you're on your computer.

Yeah, but I'm sure it will in no way be as responsive and smooth as the iPhones UI and he'll be sure to mention it. Why choose a copy over the real thing.
I would think the latest Manila would be much more impressive.

i agree....my wife has an iphone, it's awesome and I GOT it for her! But in the end, some can't have access to the best of both worlds so they make it happen....good luck!
doesn't the tf3d apps tab give that same simple layout of programs? whats the big deal with everyone asking for iphone style ui.?

i agree -- it's kinda suggesting that Apple did it better (which is what some may think, but not i) -- i even went so far as to uncheck the "Programs" tab in TF3D because i found it to be cumbersome, and use QuickMenu almost exclusively (after having remapped hardware and soft keys)

this thread just went upside down. so much negativity, we are not here to bag on what phone is best or what phone is not. it was a simple question that was answered, so if you guys don't like it then respectfully move on to another thread. Simple as that!...
just saw the tp2 section and it seems the devs have got almost a full working version of linux ubuntu running o the phone. internet and everything minus no phone or sms.
can we get this on our heros? any devs interested in trying to get this working with the phone and sms too? the hell with 2.1 if we could have this!

Not having a hardware keyboard would pretty much make it useless.
If you could get a BT to work, couldn't you use a BT keyboard, impractical yes, but kinda cool has a proof of concept.

He has a point. Unless you can find an Ubuntu soft kb, and a 1000x magnification program. And a tiny stylus.

it's still a work in progress and i think it would be a great challenge and a change of pace for our devs here if they put there minds together. since we are all waiting on 2.1 anyways.
there already is a virtual keyboard in ubuntu that works on this build. the tp2 just happens to have a real keyboard is all.
Other than the challenge, what would be the point? You would lose all the phone functions... I don't see any advantages. Help me understand why anyone would want this. Maybe if you could dual boot of the SD card... that would be cool.

That word should not be spoken here...jk, jk, lol. Sounds interesting, except for the fact that Sense has the capability built in. Maybe a sense mod that would work everything together.

Does anyone here know of an app that is similar to the playbook's bridge app?
So that one could pair their Android based phone to there honeycomb tablet and bridge sms / calls / internet / notifications?
I've seen WebOS's previews and they seem excellent.
I've seen Blackberry's Playbook and the Bridge features.
Will Google respond with there own?
Thanks!
Nope. This doesn't exist. Especially down to the level that RIM and WebOS does it.
I sure hope so, the HP stuff looks amazing! I'm hoping ice cream will give us that, they have been saying its supposed to bring the two form factors closer together. Having it right now would be amazing though

Personally I felt that bb bridge thing is a complete joke.. way tooooo slow in type response to work on my corporate bold 9650... no go
slow in what way? do u mean that ur just faster on ur bb kb? or do u mean the software is laggy?

I meant the time to load an email on playbook using bridge,
the time to type a character and see the feedback on the screen,
the time to reply an email as a whole task,
and the time to load attachments..
Browser just crashed in bridge mode, calendar is also VERY slow to load my full day of schedules from bb bold to playbook...
I prefer using Google services the way they are and have chrome to phone fill in the blanks.

Chrome to Phone is nice. But I wish there was a "Phone to Chrome" feature to take it back to my computer. I like how firefox will manage open tabs between machines etc.

Its very simple and works great on my phone.
What you need,
A remote client like teamviewer
A laptop
A tv
Set up your remote c
Software so that you can view your phones screen via laptop, hook up laptop to your tv,
Pwn nubs on the bigscreen
Also works good for phones that are touchpad only becaue your hands arent in the way anymore
How do I set it up?
I see my desktop on my phone,how do I switch it around?
Look for droid vnc server on market, it shows the phones screen by default
Easiest way to set it up would be rtfm
What about refresh latency? I've seen Droid VNC but it didn't refresh fast enough...

damn!....thats definitely a possibility. I hope not.
The resolution looks great I just wish it wasn't soooo slowwwww....there's gotta be a good combo of apps/programs that runs fast
EDIT: just f*cked with it for a couple hours.....android side I tried droid vnc server and remote desktop add on...both worked well connecting to PC and vice versa....PC side I used tightvnc and vncviewer.....both worked well also...
BUT yeah, the display on MY pc of my phone's screen was tinted RED, and was really slow...like 1-3 second delay on everything....
there's gotta be a way to optimize this! I wanna play emulators on my TV from my phone goddamnit!
cool, gonna follow this thread. i guess you need a pretty f-ing good internet speed to get it to run good enough for fast games.

seriously.....and on that note I'd be surprised if there wasn't a way to enable it somehow....the infuse 4g comes with an adapter that plugs into mini-USB and transfers to HDMI....there's gotta be a way to flash the phone so it can do it to?
if its a hardware issue, then yeah that's a dumb solution....but I'd be open to buying a hardware extension if someone modded it...

I just guessing here, but I would imagine that the HDMI out option is available just on the developers kit. During the demo of Desert Winds at E3. There was a port connection between the headphone jack and the usb port. I have to assume that port was placed on the dev. kit to allow for demo of the game during development on a bigger screen. The retail version of the phone probably does not have this port connection. If it did it would be a nice selling point.
HDMI out is in the service menu, but they removed the necessary hardware for the commercial release.
Hardware-wise it's not possible to enable anything because it's not there
eros78 is probably right, the service menu option is just a remnant from the dev kits.
