Using Evo as screen or monitor?

The television in my man cave is done, and the wife won't let me bring my xbox 360 into the living room. Is there a way I could use my Evo as a screen until I get my new television? Help a brother out!

Far as I know there is no way to get video in on our phone.

The screen is only 4.3" and only 800x480 resolution. Not worth the hassle IMHO.

Get a web came and point it to the screen and pipe it to a PC. Then VNC into the PC from your phone.

There ya go!

If I did something like that, being a man around my wife comes to mind, I would have to look around for a shelter for battered men......

there is no screen to point the webcam at.....so that idea wont work... (the root of the problem is the NON-WORKING television screen.)
