server. I was pretty excited to connect on the first try but I have a
couple of problems.
1) I can't switch applications because I can't get the mouse all the
way to the left edge which is where I have my task bar. This makes
things difficult.
2) I started this note from the iPhone but got frustrated with typing.
The normal VNC lag makes it hard. I wish the keyboard had a local text
bar as in most iPhone apps. I need the instant feedback to make up for
my clumsy fingers on the tiny iPhone keyboard. The tap cursor
interface doesn't help because it is impossible to tap with any
precision. The mouse needs gestures as well as clicks for many
applications. For example how would I ever draw a line only being able
to click the cursor instantly nto a new location.
3) For the life of me I can't figure out how to end a connection
except by deleting the configuration which seems a little extreme.
Oops! I just discovered that switching apps breaks the connection but
that is user unfriendly. Why should I have to log in again just
because the phone rang and I wanted to answer.
If I had my druthers I'd prefer that the window scrolling either be a
special mode or special key controlled and the finger gestures be used
instead to control a visible cursor. The mouse needs to move, not
jump.
Unfortunately if I can't get to the task bar this application is
pretty useless for me. The ssh part of this product seems solid but
the VNC doesn't seem to have been well thought through.
