I want to use miracast to broadcast my phone display onto my tv screen and then attach a Bluetooth mouse and keyboard to it. This way my phone is essentially my computer with my large tv screen as my monitor.

Is that possible with a windows 8 phone?

Thanks.

Well -- I was able to pair an Adesso BT Mouse with my 928 -- but there are no drivers in the phone that can use the mouse. I would suspect the same is true of a keyboard. . .

Quick answer is no. There's no HID support in WP8 at this time. Not sure if there are plans to change this or not as the thought behind WP is that it's not a computer replacement.
