Ah, OK. I played around with Androidx86 briefly, actually with an eye
towards larger screen sizes, and forgot that it might not handle the
regular ones.

OK, I'll have to pick up an...ummmm...micro HDMI cable(?) and give the
Incredible a whirl. I figured it was EVO-ish in its HDMI handling, so
I hadn't bothered trying it to date.

Particularly for things that just demo better on a device (e.g.,
sensors). Regular demos, the emulator is fine. I am getting by with
dr...@screen (itself an improvement over my original DroidEx), but
there's just not that much extra horsepower we can wring out of it
while sticking with the current implementation, so the low fps is what
it is. Demoing with HDMI would be a nice option. It also beats the
ELMO for many cases, particularly if you're not strictly trying to
demonstrate the user input, because ELMOs can be a pain in terms of
lighting and focus.

Thanks for the info!
