Re: 8" samsung usb/photo frame worth it?
Interesting one. The description clearly states you can use this as a screen via the USB cable. I'm really not sure how as it would need a video card, and VCs have outputs such as HDMI, DVI and VGA.
One thought though, is that you could use it as a digital approach plate display. It's about the right size, although the res might not be quite up to scratch.VANCOUVER
Jet fighter / single pilot sim, plus thinking of a 777 as a secondary sim.

Re: 8" samsung usb/photo frame worth it?
That would be a good idea.. digital approach plate.
Found an old thread re them
http://www.mycockpit.org/forums/show...amsung%2Bphoto
My initial idea would be to use it as the Airspeed, Altimeter & Horizon gauges.. but maybe they could be a bit small to read!
The 10" version has a higher resolution 1024x768.
ive ordered one, so will report back )
anyone have any ideas if you can use more than 1? or will that depend on PC spec?
