RDP, VNC, and VMware View on the Archos 7 HT
Tuesday, 27 July 2010 18:33

While browsing the Android Marketplace for new ways to use my Archos I came across Wyse Technology’s beta release of PocketCloud for Android. The description on the marketplace certainly piqued my interest.

Wyse PocketCloud™ enables complete access to your Windows PC, virtual machine or Remote Desktop Services from your mobile device.

Features:

  • Intuitive User Interface
  • High-accuracy Touch Pointer
  • Remote Desktop Protocol (RDP 7)
  • VMware View Support (Pending Certification)
  • Enterprise Security
  • VNC Protocol (Tech Preview)

I have quite a crazy little network setup in my house that consists of four Windows 7 machines (including the Media Center) and two Dell Servers running VMware ESX each with two virtual machines running Ubuntu Server Edition.  To manage the machines I use all three protocols that PocketCloud is targetting so it was the perfect fit for me.
