Quartics, the company behind the PC-on-TV solutions peddled by
D-Link and others showed its latest spin on the technology, Mobile2Display. We checked out a demo allowing Windows Mobile 5 or 6 based phones to send video wirelessly to a TV, with no problems about codecs or formatting, the picture upscaled through Quartics' device to high resolution. Look out for these coming from your cell phone manufacturer in the second quarter of this year. Next up? Adding the ability to send video from the TV back to the phone, Slingbox-style.

All those pictures are of an HP 210 series, which is a PDA, not a smartphone.

I believe that the HP PDAs run WinMo just like a WinMo smart phone does, so it's really just a matter of one having a cellular antenna and one not.

Correct. Looks sweet too.

The 210 runs windows mobile 6 classic, whereas the smartphone pictured, an HTC s620, runs windows mobile 5 or 6 phone edition, The two OSs behave completely differently.
