I'm not saying it's not really cool, but an easier solution might just be to spend the same amount of cash on two monitors, right?

That sounds like something my wife would say. I'll bet you don't even have a holster for your remote.

You'd be right to make that bet, although now that you mention it, a holster would be pretty sweet...
