IIRC the problem was that nobody could find one that would work with USB 1.1 
because the bandwidth requirement was too high. Alternative proposals involved 
something like VNC or NX, but the display adaptor would end up being a more 
powerful linux box than the phone. It's probably a simple enough thing to make 
with a beagleboard.
