Is it possible to jailbreak this device and use it as a secondary monitor? Thanks.

Second monitor impossible. it does not have video output and it has very specific firmware. Hack for this device is not yet possible. Expect from the Internet community an opportunity to change the language. By default, sharp hes only Japanese.

It has a monochrome native display of only 800x600 and you can export JPEG files to it from a computer via USB cable, but i wonder why anyone would want to use it as secondary monitor in this day and age of $100 Android tablets...

It's not a tablet. It is similar to a boogie board only with a bit more functionality.

Put me in the frustrated club. Like another commenter I did not spend a lot of time, but it became clear that my use was not one of the primary supported methods. If you're not in Apple world, I would be prepared to devote some time to getting it to work. It should be possible, but the quick-start easy-setup is not going to do it, and once you get past that, you're on your own to some extent. Docs are not extensive, I didn't see if they have support.

yes you can but you need a mini-display port (apple side) to VGA adapter (PC side). Work fine though.

I USED to be able to do that but it no longer is working. I was wondering if it were my iPod but nothing seems wrong with it. Using my iPod to play music through this unit is still working fine but I bought it for the precise purpose of using it as a larger screen for watching videos from my iPod. Anyone have suggestions? I loved it when it was working properly.

Unfortunately, you will not be able to do so for two reasons1. This monitor requires two USBs (one for power and the other for more power and the signal)2. This monitor requires DisplayLink drivers which are only available for Mac, PC, and a couple variations of Linux as far as I now

As Obama says - Yes we can. But you must use software that will recognize the device. For that, use ColorHCFR which is freeware.

WOW, I have to say that is the best question I have seen about this device. The answer is unfortunately no. There is definitely a way if you are willing to jailbreak the application and write your own parental control widget. But there is no software that you can install to control what your child can do on the device, including browsing to questionable material. I would not be surprised if somebody is already working on such an applet to sell at the applications store. For now though, I haven't seen anything like that.

Possible.You would need a seperate program and hardware to accomplish. But as is,No.....jb

I am not a techy, but l was told you can by plugging in the connector to both gadgets. You should get screen info and if you do just follow the instructions.

Yup! You'll need a monitor to configure it, but after it's configured it can function as a primary monitor.

Good day. The ad says that does not use the jailbreak, but I could not upgrade to the latest version of iOS (6), it is only in version number 4, try to lock up. Ie, it is not fully unlocked, although running on any carrier. I returned to the seller.

Just Checked on an Ipad Air 1 and the answer is NO....maybe via a jailbreak

Apple products are the worst when it comes to this kind of interoperability. You can't even do usb OTG on an iphone! So no, I seriously doubt you could run this particular display on an iphone.

Hi,Are you asking if you can connect this tablet pc to the monitor? If that is the question then yes you can

I haven't used the dock with my phone - just my iPad2. If you could send more information my way about what type of monitor you are trying to project to, I could experiment and let you know what I discover. Thoughts?
