Here's an article that agrees with me, but even goes as far as calling smart displays a dumb idea. The only use I see for smart displays is in a business setting. But I still see better options, like laptops that connect to projectors, etc. What are the markets for smart displays and what are the targeted uses?"

    Sometimes it is better to do something and fail than never to have tried at all. One such area is science, in which any blind alley is one less that someone will have to go down. I think this is similar. Smart displays may or may not pay off, but there's a good chance that they will yield something worthwhile. Who knows?

    Anyway, there may be some applications....
