Now that TabletPC intelligence is built-in on Vista, how soon before we can
start using a Tablet PC slate as a second TabletPC-capable Vista monitor?

I just bought myself this georgeous 17" HP multimedia notebook and it sure
would be great if I could use it in conjunction with one of my Tablet PCs.
I would use the conventional laptop as my main machine, but would love to
use the Tablet as a writing pad or as a conventional 2nd monitor.

Why, if I had to (at least in the beginning), I would settle for having to
use Tablet PCs for both the main machine and the seconary/slave
slate/monitor.

This makes so much sense to me, given that I like digital ink and slate
computing -- combining that with conventional desktop computing would be
real nice.
 
Ed,

To my current knowledge, none of the present Tablet PCs are capable of being used as a secondary
monitor in conjunction with another PC. This functionality is totally hardware dependant and hence
it depends on if/when the hardware vendors implement it in their products.
