Dr Bob,
Just for reference, Pegasus responds very well to Remote Desktop
operation. I use it here to my Nokia N800 Linux tablet over Remote
desktop, even over the sellphone link, every day.
You can leave Pegasus running continuously, logon to remote desktop to
your laptop, tablet, your office PC with your IP/username/password and
have full control of Pegasus from the remote location. Works great, no
syncing, no sellphone funny business, no multiple storage confusion.
If a large file comes in, say some media or document or presentation,
Remote Desktop can be setup so the remote device, whatever it is, can
act like an external hard drive, straight from Windows Explorer on the
home desktop, for example. Simply click and drag the object to the
remote devices storage of your choice and remote desktop will copy it
there for your use....without destroying the master copy safely stored
on your main PC.
Iphone doesn't have remote desktop, but your laptop or office desktop
already does.
If you must carry it, I recommend the Nokia N800 $230 with a free
rdesktop from maemo.org's download section. Tons of very useful
software, all free. Real word processing with an external bluetooth
keyboard made to type on, real spreadsheets, several databases and other
useful tools already for use on it.
Got special medical software on the main PC? Remote desktop can operate
it from anyplace on the net. Ask your local IT or hacker to help you
set it up on your existing units. Once configured, the only thing it
won't do is run video/audio to the remote. For that, you download the
media and play it on the remote locally.
Most users have no idea it's already included on their Windows, MAC
desktops and laptops. There's no need to rent an external service to
use it.
If you can call up those Xrays of Mr Jones on your home PC, you can view
them from your laptop or internet tablet via remote desktop. Wouldn't
that be handier for your application?
