How do achieve 2 external displays?

[finalcutproFCP]

Hi,

I currently have a 15inch MacBook Pro with final cut studio, I use an external HD monitor for my main editing and the MBPs display for secondary. I am running out of screen real-estate for my secondary and want to get a 3rd monitor. The only problem is that there is not way to upgrade the graphic cards in the MBP. My question is: How can i have a total of 3 displays all displaying different images(ie. not mirrored).

Thank you for the help.

Matrox DualHead2Go or TripleHead2Go or DisplayLink hardware.

Free? Stealing perhaps, as you need additional hardware to achieve what you want to achieve.

A PC with a graphics card with two ports to connect to two displays is not able to transfer video to a third monitor unless you buy additional hardware.

If you use MRoogle (my and many, many, many others' signatures), you find plenty of threads about connecting a third/second monitor to the MB(P) or iMac via some USB to VGA/DVI devices. But as it is extra hardware I suppose one has to spend money on them.
