WHAT STYLEZ THINKS ABOUT => Remote Desktop control apps on Android

I just received a request for recommendation of a good RDP or Remote Desktop control app on Android phones & tablets.

So What Does STYLEZ Think?

My first recommendation is 2X Client RDP/Remote Desktop!

It works on Android 1.6-4.0. I use it on my 4.3" touchscreen and it works AWESOME! It has great reviews on tablets too. It's free and uses true RDP (only problem there is only Pro or Ultimate versions of XP & Vista allow RDP, I think all versions of 7 allow it). And it works even better than Wyse PocketCloud (which is $25). And I see they just introduced an AMAZING new features... Published Apps! If you don't know what that is, think VMware ThinApp meets Android! You can run apps from a machine in your network as if they were natively running on your phone or tablet!

My second choice would be TeamViewer for Remote Control.

This app is also FREE! It runs on Android 1.6 and up (not sure if it has Android 4.0 support yet, but if not, I'm sure it's coming). It doesn't use true RDP, it uses a Host/Viewer (or Host only) service app on the desktop (which is great for people running Home versions of XP & Vista). It's an AMAZING app that works internally and externally when you're on the road, with NO router changes. I think you have to change a setting in the server portion of the software combo to allow internal network connections. But otherwise it works GREAT! I use it on friends and family PCs so that I can assist them remotely!

PockeTwit Review

In my search for a Windows Mobile Twitter client, I have found several clients out there. PockeTwit and Twinkini are the two I decided to install and try out. After using both clients, I found PockeTwit to be the BEST and easiest to use! It has all the features you could want and more in a Twitter Client:

- Shortened URLs
- pic uploads (you can choose pre-existing pics on your device or take a picture on the spot, also you can choose which service to use for pics storage and URL is auto inserted to posting)
- GPS geo-tagging of posts
- cool full screen interface with scrolling and panning
- hashtags
- search
- options to follow and unfollow
- conversation tracking
- alternate timelines
- detailed views
- quick linking to posted URLs and Pics
- and more!

Plus its fast and updates you on the home screen of any new @ or Direct Messages, plus Friend Timeline updates. And you get ALL OF THIS FOR FREE!!! Gotta love that! Because PockeTwit was the fastest client to setup and the learning curve was non-existent (I was able to just pickup the app and start using it), I never used Twinkini again after install and first use!!! LOL! Oh well, its only got about a 1/4 of the features PockeTwit has, AND they charge $5 to $10 for the app! What's up with that! I would pay $15 or PockeTwit, but never pay for a subpar app like Twinkini! CRAZY!

Get PockeTwit today for Windows Mobile and you will be very happy you did!

Hello PockeTwit Developers,
I recently wrote a blog about your great application. And I LOVE it. In the article I mentioned how another app is out there charging for their Twitter client, and the fact that I would pay $15 for yours, since they charge $5 to $10 for their's! Well, here it is, my $15!!! :) Believe me, I DON'T usually purchase software (unless I absolutely have too), I will seek out free alternatives and deal with any shortcomings that may come along with them. HOWEVER, your application has no shortcoming I have found yet, so I figure, you deserve to be paid for your GREAT work! I wish you guys continued success and hope you continue to give us this great product and more in the future! Take care!
