RE: if you haven't got one of these, get one (Airpanel)

["Phil Harris" <phil@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Also keep an eye out for the Philips Desxcape units - they were an LCD
monitor which detached from its base and then automatically started a
remot=
e
desktop session so that you could carry on working with your PC undocked
.... Bloody superb and I wish I had bought the last one that we had at Lets
but I didn't have enough spare cash at the time.
