Magic Tablet Window

Brief

just like Strages's "PDA magic window", but with a tablet instead of a PDA.

Put Aside: usability problems

Overview

The tablet PC would operate as a "Magic Window" to a much larger desktop space. The sensor on a cheap optical mouse would be used to send positional data.

A tablet PC is much larger than a PDA, so finding a table big enough to house the virtual, larger desktop space would be cumbersome and unweildy. Much better to stick to the PDA Magic Window idea, and forget about this one.
