The Antec Veris Multimedia Elite and Premier contain iMon components. 
The Elite fits in a 5.25" drive bay, the Premier fits into one bay but 
covers 2 bays in front. I'm not sure what you mean by 'remote' display, 
but both of these connect by USB, so you could use an external case (and 
power wart) with a long USB cable.

I saw the Elite at a local shop some time ago. About $90-$100 Cdn iirc.
