Hello , I think using the mobile in addition to talking must be developed for those FIVE essentials :
1* Fax machine MOBILE FAXING DIRECTLY using any photo or text .
2* Sending and receiving files CELL TO CELL OR CELL TO LAND Computer or LAND Computer TO CELL .
3* Supporting External Keyboard the same one of Computers by USB Port For or bluetooth.
4* Supporting External Screen the same one of Computers by Junction or Joiner ( so there must be Built in VGA In the Mobile )
5*Adding a Projector for mobiles ( plus to the fixed small LCD screen so you can resize your screen as you like ) .
If All the Last Feature Were Found In Any Mobile which is Supports Installing Software , It will be Be Better than Any Mobile and Laptop In this World .
I got some photos showing me new generation from laptop pc , it had 3d projector screen which creating the view in the volume of air , it was like colored ghosted pyramid its head coming from the projector and its base against it and the vision was from its base and the vision size was various depending on the strength of the projector also it had 3d projector for keyboard I wish to find those features in mobiles

And then you WONDER WHY your MBP is back at the Apple Store. Keep wracking up those anti-Karma points by tormenting me like this, James!

Frank, one of the biggest innovations with the Redfly is that it changes the resolution of the WM device to match the Redfly’s which is much bigger. That means that the WM device doesn’t have to support any resolution bigger than its own screen, the Redfly handles that.

I think what is more interesting are the protocols and connectivity that would allow you to use a small device with any KVM combo. I envision the ability to simply bring a device into the room and have it be automatically detected for use with a KVM wirelessly whether that be Bluetooth or wireless USB.

All the buzz seems to be about the notebook like device that you are referencing, but didn’t Celio also announce another device that would do what I describe above?

I think the $400 price tag is going to be a barrier for these devices having success. The price is going to have be no higher than $200 to have a chance.

James, yes you are right..

but, there is no device that doest have a prosessor that can perform screen rendering etc.

so yes, compered to pc, it doesn’t have a “cpu” but it sure has signaling processor, graphics prosessor and small memory for kernel.

even desktop screens have…

but my “going way too deep” about the prosessor is pretty useless info..

And yes, the resolution point is the “BIG thing” about this device compared to other solutions (software and hardware )

jkkmobile, we were told by the CEO of Celio that the Redfly uses the processor, memory and storage of the smartphone, it does not have any onboard. Your point about the 800×480 display is well taken, the Redfly does display intelligently using the larger screen and doesn’t just stretch it to fit.

ok, i just had a insane moment here.

take redfly, hand it to apple, and have them give it a macbook air design and pair it with iphone…

im not sure if should be getting chills or a stained boxer…

all this makes me wonder if not microsoft is betting the farm on the wrong house by allowing their mobile platform to be a lesser relative to their desktop os.

on the other hand, linux based devices seems able to take on the desktop apps with little to no modification.

just now i have both abiword and gnumeric installed on my N800. and if it had vga out, im sure i could have used them just as well as their desktop versions.

hell, with all this “positive” talk around the redfly, and next to no talk at all on some tech “news” sites in any regard, it seems the redfly will succeed where the foleo failed. and that with less of a stand alone purpose. without a supported phone or other device to connect to, the redfly is just a expensive paper weight…

where is the mails questioning the viability of the product? whats going on here?

some details about REDFLY:

-it is 10mm smaller than Eee (on battery side), about same weight
-it has the same keyboard as Eee
-screen is 8″ 800 x 480, no touch
-phones UI is rendered/streched to 800 x 480 via software ( the good way, it is as sharp as on the phone, not only bigger but also more info on it, way better than advantage )
-REDFLY can output to vga display at 800 x 480

..it does have storage, memory and processor :) would not work without..

good videos to see :
