Ipod Touch it's great it has so many applications, heres another.
       Use Your Ipod Touch/ iPhone as Wireless Monitor 
This is also great if you have an old laptop, to make it faster use a cat-5 (ethernet) cable.
All you need is:
iPod Touch/ iPhone- with vnc client (I use VNC lite)
Apple Macintosh
Screen Recycler

 Once downloaded install it and look in the folder then open screen recycler. 
It will ask if you want to buy it, I didn't I clicked Buy Later, the demo mode is unlimited but you only have 20 minutes a go.
Take note of the ip address and the port.


Then go to the ipod/iphone and type the ip address on the screen recycler window and change the port (if necessary).
               
(6900 is the default port)

Finished

 Now your ipod/iphone is a working second monitor drag windows from monitor to monitor.
    It is great for those with a Macbook or other that has only one display out and want more than one.
