Higher resolution in Remote Desktop

Is there a way to get remote desktop / terminal server client to support 600x800? Or another app that will connect to terminal services at higher resolutions? Previously, you could connect a device with a 240x320 screen at 480x640 resolution and then pan around. Now that the Pro supports native 480x640, can we get the client to double that and enable pan? There are just too many programs that don't work at less than 600x800 so this program has yet to be useful, but with the higher resolution support, it could be extremely useful.

I would love that too..i'm sure there is a registry setting but I can't find it. I need to connect at a larger resolution so I can pan. 480x640 is awesome but I need bigger and don't mind panning.

try setting the options to high color 16 bit

No increase in resolution with 16-bit vs 256, still only 480x640.

I'd be interested in this as well. Let us know if you find anything.

Also, anybody have any idea how to increase the audio bitrate of the PPC client. Audio streams great from a desktop client, but the mobile version drastically reduces the sound quality. I was searching for this a long time ago, but never found anything. Anybody have any ideas? Sorry about the slight thread jack
