BT screen

[ThunderCat]

I want to build a small BT (blue tooth) screen that is linked to my computer. The idea being that the computer would send the contents of a file (roughly numbers) to the remote device. VISTA was all set up to handle these external screens, but the idea never caught on. So, I want to build one of my own.

Thanks in advance

You can do this with an iPad via WiFi.

Yes, I guess that's true (in theory). But how would you transfer the live contents of a file?

How did you plan on doing it with bluetooth?

What type of file do you want to send?

What I wanted to do was send 8 numbers from my PC to an external BT display. For simplicity, I can write the numbers to a text file which I then want to display on the external device... Air Display is great, but it requires the two PCs to be on the same wi-fi network. I wanted something that was wi-fi independent.
