Vista Sideshow must be part of the Windows API now: this means that a large number of applications should support this. You can hook up your iLiad too, but for much different purposes: mostly grabbing files, surfing the net using your iLiad etc... Vista Sideshow enables apps on your desktop to send informations to any Sideshow enable device: a phone, another screen, a remote controller, an UMPC, this e-ink reader etc... That's 2 completely different uses of the wireless connection.
