Lapdock questions

[KahneFan]

My Aunt recently purchased a Photon, her first smartphone, her main question; "If I get the lapdock accessory, will I be able to play Angry Birds?" Does anyone have a lapdock they can test this on? Does it just use the touchpad?

Supposedly you can. But some of the reviews say it gets a little glitchy. I just bought a HDMI to MICRO adapter for $10 at Radio Shack and was playing games on my tv. That was fun. Gonna try the Wii mote app and see if that'll make it more fun.

The lapdock runs an Ubunutu desktop with your Android window as just a window you interact with clicking. It has no touch-screen.

So if you planned on playing the ANDROID AngryBirds, you'd have screen-framing issues, as it wouldn't perfectly fill it, and you'd need to click and drag to aim. Are you doing it for the screen size?

Mostly going to the 100 lapdock to save the monthly data charge of a tablet.

Well, it'd work, better with a USB mouse, but once again, it's not a touch-screen.

Does it play on the rendering of the phone screen or can you expand to full screen?
