Thanks to both of you that answered. I somehow had gotten the impression that the tablets handled the display differently. All the stuff I'm expecting to use is all touch-screen interface anyway, since it's all designed to be used as a carputer. Normally I'd have the computer in the trunk or elsewhere and cables running to a touch screen display, but since the car is (almost) an antique, I want to retrofit it. I was stuck on organizing the situation when it hit me I could use my N770 through wifi and export the X session. It gives me an added benefit: new cars with remote locks are hackable by anyone who listens in to them, but with wifi, if I have my N770 with me, then I could eventually make an app that would lock or unlock the doors remotely, like the newer keys, but since the connection would use ssh, it'd be almost unbreakable. This is turning into something really cool and the idea that I can use my N770 as a remote display and not even have to have a wired head unit is fantastic! Thanks!
