Raspberry Pi as a VNC connected mount-controller

Brendan, this carries across from the previous thread - and I agree that a VNC connection back would be excellent. I was thinking about maybe using a small SSD instead of the SD card - the SD cards are fairly slow and if the Pi is running PHD or something similar, that could be a bottleneck.
Also, it probably doesn't really need a screen does it - perhaps for the setup and connection phase but thereafter it is all remote isn't it? Same with a mouse/keyboard. Could they be disabled or even disconnected once the connection is made? Or perhaps connected via a KMV swith or whatever they are called?
