We had seen this a while back, I believe it was the Atrix and one of the RAZR's that we saw a dock that would connect our phone to peripherals like monitors and mice (I reviewed the RAZR dock waaaay back when).
It's been my real dream since then to be able to have something like this. Take my phone from home and plop it into a dock at work for my monitor and do work. Take it home and plop it into a dock at home for my TV, or a dock downstairs for my PC... one device, multiple screens.
Andromium is closer and closer to making this happen as they've not only designed the dock but an accompanying OS/app for it to work on your monitor of choice.
Connect a wireless keyboard or mouse to your device as well and you have pretty much a working Android PC.
Currently in the Kickstarter funding process, you can sign up and pledge now for a perk of one device. A $10 backing gets you the companion app (if you have a compatible dock already) or $30 gets you a dock as well.
Currently it only is available for the following: Galaxy S3, S4, Note 2, Note 3, Note 4, HTC One M7, M8, Nexus 4, Nexus 5, Nexus 6 (apparently it's a little hard to ensure compatibility amongst all manufacturers for the video out options). If you've got a compatible device, give this a look over.
