What to use an extra 17" LCD for?

I was just given a newish 17" LCD (VGA) for free. I'm already using both ports on my PC, so what can I use it for? Obviously I could sell it, but I'm wondering about other uses:
- Video game console if I pickup a converter?
- Some sort of info display in my bedroom? (easy, cheap way to display headlines, current weather, etc.?)
- neat-o big ass digital picture frame?
What else? Also, does anyone have any leads on the above? What say you?

Use it as your PPC's monitor, drag it around town, woooooohooooo!!!!
Or as a door greeter:

if u can build pc make a car pc

17 is WAYY too big for a carpc, im using an 8in and thats huge considering your only 1 foot away from the screen. if i were you i would put in next to your current monitor and put ur music player and stuff like that on that screen while u use the main screen for web browsing and what not.

What I'd really love is a Chumby like device or the WidgetStation (which I don't know if it will ever come out...)
I could re-create it using a small Linux system, but it's the hardware I don't have a clue about. I envision now waking up to this display near my bed, on it are some "widgets" with weather, time, some RSS feeds, etc.
That would be sweet...

That's not a bad idea ChaOConnor. I like having everything right there when I wake up also.

I do like this idea. I may have to ponder it for myself.
Oh And ON that Note....

Apps for Runners?

Hey all,
Are there any programs for runners that I can use for my fuze? Specifically, something like a GPS program that will track my route/distance/speed. I've heard this kinda thing exists for other phones, but not heard about this phone.
Thanks.

wish i woulda known this earlier
i bought a Nike+ for my ipod smh

truthfully there are a lot more of them:

sorry you had to resort to an iPod...I just puked a little thinking about it

Thanks! Just what I was looking for.

SportyPal is quite good, I'm using it for cycling(very good), but i read now on some thread that for running they have added to show the pace in real time with also all the other tools for measuring speed, distance, calories ...

try RUN.GPS, works very fine on mine.

+1 for SportyPal (sportypal.com). I use it to track my kayak trips down the rivers in the panhandle. It will overlay your path on an aerial photograph and has links with Facebook, so you can share it.

Sportypal is my program of choice. During the cross country season I can give my phone to one of my lead runners and track their pace during intervals and can also tuck it in my jersey pocket when I go on bike rides and have all that data at hand as well. Best thing? It's FREE!

check out endomondo. very nice and free.

I got an e-mail from them, that very soon they will have the option to choose the workout type from the phone as kayaking, rowing or some other interesting type of sports.

I dont think anyone mentioned G-Watch which I have found to be excellent for just what you described.

Some new types of workouts are added:
skiing, rowing, horse riding, driving, flying, sailing, swimming, hiking, paragliding, snowboarding, cross-country skiing, surfing

SmartRunner is one of the best applications for tracking, imho.

BLS Drug Profiles

Hey, I was bored so I figured I would code this app and throw it on the Android marketplace. It as all of the BLS Drug Profiles based off the Arizona Department of Health.
Before I throw it onto the market I figured I would ask what you guys think of the GUI. Do you guys like the way it looks? Or should I change it, what do you think I should do to make it better? Also keep in mind this is my first app.

Looks interesting. What I can see looks pretty good but you should post the apk so we can install and really check it out for ya.

This is a sorely needed app!
Thanks.
I wouldn't use blue for the text color though.
In bright lights or outdoors, that is gonna be very difficult to read.
Since this app could possibly be needed in an emergency situation, it's vital for everything to be able to be seen without any fuss or confusion.
Make it high contrast ... white text on black.
As for the overall ui, it's perfectly fine other than that. This isn't an app where asthestics are important. It's not something people will be glaring at for hours on end. It's utilitarian, it's reference. And keeping it simple is exactly what's needed.
One thing I might add at some point is a link to Wikipedia if there is one (at least I don't see it from the screenshots). Or if the material you're using for reference has other online references available to the general public, that's fine too. Especially something with links to pictures to help identify pills/capsules etc. That's just an idea.
Great job.
And if you're needing a beta tester, please let me know.
Thanks.

Ok, I will experiment with the color of the text I suppose. I can also ad a link to the Arizona Health Department Bureau of EMS. I also have a disclaimer to add, and it should be ready

Sorry for the double post, just wanted to let everyone know that I posted this on the market

Tsk, tsk, tsk, links man, links! Lol Also to the thread in general I want to know if there is any effect on battery life if you could be so kind. I've downloaded two faces and both were battery killers which to me makes them a non starter. I would like to know beforehand if there will be a penalty and if so how much. Thanks.

@krabman
As for now this is a "slightly modified for the watch" version of a widget I designed with zooper widget several years ago. I sent it to the watch with the app Wearable Widgets.

I found what I believe to be a good one... https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.pujie.wristwear.pujieblack Has a lot of options for setting up just as you like and appears to be good with battery showing no increase in consumption for me. No regret on forking over the ching.

Love this look

I have a pixel watch and use the default watch face. I will post it in here if anyone wants to copy me.

I've been using minimalistic pixel face (it is paid), and now I'm using WFP 241 exact time. Costs a bit over a dollar, but get their job done.

Hopefully they have fixed the extreme lag with this watch app.
