Windows Vista has a little brother in Windows Mobile. At least that is where it seems to be going. The SideShow application turns your mobile device into a small “Tempest Junior” for the huge desktop “Thunder Sub.”
Here are a few things up for the testing grounds according to the devs:
* New Portrait QVGA UI designed for remote controls
* New Universal driver for Windows SideShow that supports USB and Bluetooth communication
* New Simulator that uses the Universal driver
* New user switching UI for devices operating in the assigned user mode
* New Bluetooth menu commands
* Support for Danish, Finnish, and Norwegian languages
Gee. Although SideShow works with mobile devices with two screens, there has to be a way to link it up to your mobile phone to view pertinent information. Since SideShow uses gadgets, I guess an upgrade to the WM OS would allow support for these.
