A remote user interface system for use with a host computer is provided. The remote user interface system includes a host transceiver system attached for communication with a host computer system. The remote user interface system also includes a portable interface tablet having a touchscreen display. Functionally, the host transceiver system gathers audio and video output generated by the host computer system. The audio and video output are sent by the host transceiver system to the portable interface tablet for output to the user. The portable interface tablet also gathers mouse and audio input from the user. These inputs are sent by the portable interface tablet to the host transceiver system and injected into the host computer system as user input.
