Wireless Monitors? [Slashdot: News for nerds, stuff that matters] Viewsonic link here.

It's not so much a monitor as a wireless tablet PC running WIN CE/.NET [Per the specs]. One of my current fields of inquiry is into decent family oriented PIM/CMS software. Being able to sync everyone's schedule, the recording of their favorite shows, when they'll be where and their contact numbers where they are is important for a family, and moreso for a business.

This all ties into my Higgins idea as well, of having MajorDomo that runs off your home server in the background, and takes care of day to day contact management etc for you.

So how does this tie into a "wireless monitor"? I can see these on nightstands around the country, slowly brightening to act as a combination light/noise alarm, and since it's ties into your PIM/CMS system, it makes it super easy to answer the phone, change your alarm settings, etc.

I know a lot of this tech exists in a variety of ways now, but there is a long row to hoe before we get to the point that ubiquity will bring down the prices to where everyone can afford it.
