I don't know if this has been brought up before, but I would like to be able to use my iphone as an extra monitor for my computer. It would be useful for things such as aim, growl or any other notification based apps that don't require much space.
I've found that the program screen recycler works (http://www.macupdate.com/info.php/id/22908/screenrecycler) all it requires is a vnc app on the iphone to work.
Because it works cross network the refresh rate is a bit slow but usable for notifications that don't require speed.
The problem now is finding a vnc app for the iphone that has no overlays on the screen as well as figuring out how to set the 320x480 resolution for the extra display. I tried using SwitchResX but couldn't get it to work correctly.
Has anyone attempted anything similar?
