Can I clone my Droid screen onto my PC?

I have a Samsung Q1 tablet PC installed in my car. I just got a Droid and like its GPS software better than any designed for PC I have tried. Is there a way I can clone my Droid screen onto my Q1? Sort of like the remote desktop apps out there but they all seem to be designed to access the PC via the Droid.
I dont care about controlling it via PC, I just want the GPS screen on my 7 inch screen instead of the 3.8 or whatever the Droid is.
I have been researching installing Android onto PC but it doesn't sound like it works too well just yet. Any advice or thoughts on that are welcome too.
 
"Luuuke, use the fo--search!" :D At least 5 guys have been asking that question this month alone.

PicMe allows you to control and take screenshots of your device from a remote web browser. Just fire up PicMe and start grabbing from http://your_device_ip:8082 to take your screenshot, switch to live view to control it. Currently only supports ***ROOTED*** devices.
That's what it says on the app's info page. My own experience is that it works just fine without root, but give it a go.

Mind you, it's not a real live stream, but rather a continuously updated series of screen shots. Expect somewhere between 0.2 and 2 FPS.

Also, there's a widget that will show your IP address (LAN if you're on a WLAN; WAN if you're on 3G), but I forget its name. Yah, I'm a tease, sorry!
