Default HD2 as embedded PC

Hi every body,
in a few futur I will buy a HD2. It's the best phone that I've ever seen ! But it's more i think : with a 1 ghz processor 500mo ram, it's more powerfull than my first windows PC !!!
Why don't we open a thread that imagine to make the HD2 our embbeded pc windows or linux OS ?
after it's simply to imagine to plug a keyboard and use tv out for a larger screen !!!

don't we ?

it would be nice, really... but... not possible. Unless it had LTE for high speed data, you could remote desktop to your pc all the time.

Yeah, apparently it hasn't got a TV-out or the host USB capabilities it was rumoured to have a few weeks back...
What a shame... Those were the only two features that could really have made me consider upgrading from my Diamond2. I still want the HD2 but I can't find an excuse for buying one anymore :'(

No tv out, no USB host ... preview specifications were false !!! processor and camera are the only two summary upgrad of HTC... there 're wrong !!!

you can't compare the processor speed of a PDA/Smartphone with a computer one

Even if it did have a TV out, it would make a pretty crap PC. 1GHz is nowhere near enough now.
