Have to be a bloody big display then to get all that on.....almost TV
sized
in fact :)

News Headlines - BBC News 24/Sky news
Email - can be done on TiVo
The rest - probably can be too.
Someone (with suitable skillz) should write a listener app to run on TiVo
so
it will display anything it receives over TCP port X on the screen.
There is an OSD display proggie out there, but you have to actually run
it
>from
Okay, not everyone has a tivo, but it's an idea.
HV does OSD too I believe, as will the KAT5 switcher....
Maybe what we need is 1/2 a dozen software modules to work with all
these
devices and a few cheap 5" TV screens embedded in the walls......
