Using sgs2 as wireless (multi) touchpad

A friend has apples multi touch pad for his macbook and it works really for general browsing/videos etc (that with a kb). I have been trying a few, none really allowed pinch to zoom. Does anybody know if its possible?
While searching, I found one called idisplay,

it extends your win7 desktop to your phone, then you can use the phoens touch screen to move around!

why use your phone as a mouse pad when you have a keyboard and mouse dedicated for your pc ?

Because sometimes its nice to be able to shut the pc down from bed
and yes im that lazy. I have my tv hooked up to my pc and i use remote
droid to control what im playing on the tv or even vlc remote.
Remote droid has the touchpad but i dont know if its multitouch.

at home my pc is hooked up to my hdtv, so when sitting on the couch my mouse doesnt work so well. I could buy a new mouse, but after using the magic pad thingy I was thinking it was much easier to move about websites and click on episodes/movies. Im not saying I will get rid of my mouse, just certain times it would be easier for me.
So far, the sonar mouse works best (anybody else?), but I think it eats up the battery.

nice, remote droid looks ideal (just checked it out on youtube)...black background will save the battery...can it do pinch to zoom? Im wondering if its even possible to do it using this method, I was just hoping we could!

Yea im not sure if windows 7 even has pinch to zoom implemented.
maybe on touchscreen monitors but i doubt on the mouse.
I have remote droid setup in my startup list so after ive turned the pc on
i dont even need to touch the damn thing.
Also do you know about remote notifier? to get all your phone notifications
from your phone on your pc. thats good too if say youre phones downstairs.

Portable BT keyboard w/touchpad for GT10.1 ???

Hello, does anyone know of a portable bluetooth keyboard for the 10.1 that has a touchpad on it. Right now I am using my PS3 bluetooth keyboard with touchpad and it is amazing. There is a cursor that moves and clicks and it makes it so easy then reaching and touching the screen accurately. I would love a keyboard that has a slot that will also hold the tablet up and in place. Thanks. As much as I love using my PS3 keyboard it is NOT portable LOL. Thanks for all suggestions.

Usb otg?

I browsed and didn't find this topic. Has anybody checked to see if the usb port can host? I would love to use this to remote control my camera for shoots. Via https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=eu.chainfire.dslrcontroller

<<EDIT>> Chainfire does some awesome app development. You could PM him here on XDA for compatibility. I think he has a Note2 now or is able to give you a feel for how it will work, as that is a paid app.
OTG works fine from a OTG Cable and from Juiced Systems 4-in-1. I've used it for media transfer from my USB flash. Sadly the 4-in-1 will not charge the SGN2 in any case (attached to power, with/without flash memory attached) as it is stated to do for S2.
I'm still testing external USB hub / mouse / keyboard / USB HDD abilities, but all looks very nicely implemented.
I hope to get the desktop dock which would combine concurrent use of:
Charging
OTG usb devices (x3)
Audio output to powered amp
HDMI output to large video display.

Nice. Thanks for the info.

So far, this is the oddest thing I could think to attach that works...

Also found out my wife's ccd barcode scanner works! Sure we have the camera, but if you're using it to input a crap ton of asset tag numbers into an excel spreadsheet, or web based app, that doesn't work so well.

It's possible if you root your phone and use something like stickmount and plug mouse through otg cable. This also works if you want to add more storage with usb flash drives. I've never tried this and this may or may not work with your device.

Whatever input you're using needs to be compatible with the phone/game.
I'm not sure about a mouse - how would the input even be read ? When my tablet reads a mouse, it's basically imitating a finger - it's not going to give you FPS controls like on a computer, it's just going to be a finger - which might be useful but I'm not sure it's what you're looking for.
Some games are compatible with various game pads - that would give you a traditional "controller" - but you'd need to see what games they're compatible with and how (does the analog input end up being basically a d-pad, can you live with that, et cetera).

In need of a low priced bt keyboard and mouse
