Posted by Ekkie Tepsupornchai in "SOFTWARE" @ 05:30 PM
"Breakthrough! Take Remote Desktop on your mobile device to a whole new level! Dedicate design for your mobile device to remote control the PC and transfer files with phone, network or ActiveSync connection."
The key features includes:
* Remote control of your desktop (support for Win98SE, WinME, WinNT4.0 SP6, Win2000, WinXPHome/Pro)
* 256 bit encryption
* Three encryption algorithms to choose from (AES, Serpent, Twofish)
* Two way authentication with rotating key
* FTP with file resume capabilities and wildcard support
* Copy & Paste integration between desktop / PDA
* License includes unlimited "Remote2PC" server installations (for the desktop). You are only charged for number of the "Remote2PC" Client (PPC/WM) installs.
This looks like an enterprise grade VNC-type of solution. If it delivers on everything it claims to deliver, this is an absolute steal at $36.95. I'd still prefer using TightVNC (or equivalent) over my laptop to connect remotely, but for people who are on-call but constantly on the go, lugging around a laptop everywhere may not always be practical or convenient. In some easy-to-imagine circumstances, this would be a far more desirable solution. Additionally consider that if you only use one PPC/WM device to support a large number of PCs, this price is phenomenal!
