WM5 Remote Desktop Mobile
FREE

RDM+ by Shape Services
$44.95, one time, per Pocket PC, unlimited PC's

To start off, let me say, there are many more services/programs out there, maybe others will post their experiences. I tried these hearing that they worked well on the 6700.


To start with Remote Desktop Mobile: Never got it running, probably due to some proxy issues. Didn't really have the time to work on it, I have heard others are happy with it.

LogMeIn and GotoMyPC: Basically, they work. On the Pocket PC I find they are both quite choppy and slow. They seem to work in a similar manner, scrolling and zooming is very tedious to me. I can't remember which one, but one of these would freeze the PPC on occasion. Installation/setup is quite simple in both cases. Removal of Program/Cancellation of trial is not as easy. Free 30 day trial then $12.95-$19.95 per month.

RDM+ by ShapeServices: Smoother, "snappier" and can handle some commands the others don't. I don't often get too impressed by trial software, however, I couldn't wait to register this one. And a much better deal, $44.95, one time fee, per PPC, unlimited PC's. You can have a friend/customer install the desktop client and have control of their PC in minutes. I run a Win95 program that I need access to about 3-5 times per week, I just keep the host PC running and login when needed. Installation/setup is a breeze, very Pocket PC friendly website. Uninstalls well if you decide not to buy. You only get a 7 day trial, but I bought mine after 3 days.

I suggest you try them all, see which works for you. It didn't take me very long to make my choice. RDM+ seems to work "differently" than the other two. I can't explain it, but the others seem like the Pocket PC was a afterthought, while RDM+ was meant for the Pocket PC.

I am sure there are more....

i use the free logmein with my mogul and like it better then gotomypc. i dont use it much but perfer logmein.

I use Gooer Remote Desktop Service, it support all Java Powered mibile phone or PDA. It is very easy to use and can work in any environment. The price is much cheaper that others. I strongly recommend to have a try.
