Lugging a monitor along wherever you go kind of goes against the idea of owning a laptop but hey, we've seen stranger things than people who always need a secondary display.

PROLiNK has reportedly launched an USB-powered monitor called PRO1301WE.

Weighing 645 grams (1.42 pounds), it has a diagonal of 13.3 inches, LED backlighting and a thickness of 8 mm (0.31 inches).

For some reason, no one seems willing to say what the resolution is, even as they draw attention to the touch-based color controls and the existence of mini-DisplayPort, HDMI and VGA inputs. Oh well, onto the next matter: usability.

The display can be mounted both vertically and horizontally, using a stand, may be folded against the back of a notebook when not in use.

Most of the time though, you'll probably have it attached to the side of your default screen, using a special bracket (swivel angle of 225 degrees) and 3M tape.

Set to start shipping around June 7 and 10 (PC Show), PROLiNK's PRO1301WE USB monitor has a price of $229 / 180 Euro.
