An 8 inch mini monitor. I find myself . . . using it for everyyyyythhiiinnnng. Videos, documentation, Remote Desktop Sessions etc etc etc. It even has composite and BNC so I could hook up a playstation if I wanted to. :)

I bought it just because the thought of having it was funny. And holy crap the size difference!!

Can I ask what I'm sure everyone is thinking, how are any of those things improved by being tiny?

I have 2 monitors and sometimes I wish I had a tiny monitor so I can put any video calls in the corner so I don't have a dumb overlay on my productivity monitors

I've thought about wall mounting a 50" above my setup to drag things that I need open, but not where I'm working...

To add to this, I use an old iPad as a third monitor at work for Teams mostly. It's 1024x768 which seems to be the minimum supported resolution for Teams (except for some applets) and I don't need a good quality picture for Teams.

Unfortunately the app I've been using (TwomonUSB) seems to be no longer available for Windows download (CDN down), but this doesn't affect me personally as I still have the setup anyway.
