Lightbulb Tablet PC for display gauges and control knobs & switches

Here's an idea for some tablet PC (preferably Android OS) and IL2 DeviceLink interface savvy coder to enhance IL-2 Sturmovik: Cliffs of Dover's immersion.

Display aircraft gauges on tablet PC
Create a software for displaying aircraft (and other future vehicles) gauges and also user controllable functionality to setup own layout of gauges for each aircraft/vehicle type. Also access to map would be nice to see on tablet PC display too.

Control umm.... aircraft controls with touch screen
Because those tablet PCs are equiped with touch screens, naturally all kinds of knobs, levers, buttons, switches etc. can be controled from the same gauge interface. (This might need new 2-way DeviceLink version from Maddox Games or tablet PC could just send keyboard key presses, joystick axis movements, etc. if applicable)

Multi-tablet PC setup for gauges and controls
Those android based tablet PCs are quite cheap and getting cheaper all the time, so naturally cabability to setup multi-tablet gauge displays & controls are well with in reach for most enthustiasts in the near future I hope.

I think tablet PCs are equiped with WiFi connection so it is very easy to setup your own personal "cockpit" around your existing PC monitor, desktop, joystick/HOTAS setup.

Here's my 2 cents... times 10 000 000 IL-2: COD copies sold.
