I am on the title page of wired.com

They interviewed me last week at MacWorld Expo and today I am at http://wired.com. Pretty amazing to me.

Just scroll down my blog. Its all there. Basically you need a VNC server on the Mac (OSX VNC 1.4) and the VNC client for PocketPC from Parys, that supports the VGA resolution of the newer PocketPCs. Then all you need is a fast network connection with little latency.I have a fixed wireless Internet connection at home and on the PocketPC I use any free WLAN hotspot I can find. As soon, as I get back to Europe, I will try it via Bluetooth and a UMTS phone. 384kbps downstream is more than enough for VNC. I even tried running VNC with 1280*854 pixels resolution to a Sony T5 with 1280*768 on UMTS last June and it ran fine.

Sorry for the remedial question, but can you elaborate exactly what a VNC is, exactly? Do you have any links for the software required to perform what you were able to do? Also, what kind of UPLOAD speed do you need from home in order to view content on your PDA? Thanks.

I find that incredible. Until yesterday I never thought that sort of thing possible, and now I can't stop thinking about how cool it is. Time to come up with a scheme to get myself a PocketPC with VGA (looks amazing!)

I just read the article about you in Wired(Japanese edtion).I was so impressed about the link between Pocket PC and Powerbook. It's exactly cool.Most of Japanese like small gadgets such as Walkman.Teddythebear,do you remember Powerbook 2400?A lot of Mac user in Japan would really like to bring along Mac.What you do with Pocket PC and Powerbook attracts many Japanese Mac user,I think.

Sorry for the late reply, but travelling from San Francisco to Europe took me more than a day plus getting order into chaos at home again. Now I finally have time to publish again. Seems I am not the only one who likes the SuperDachsHound. Will post it on my Flickr account soon...

Virtual Network Computing. Basically all the regions on the server screen that are changing are copied to the client screen.

Do you have any links for the software required to perform what you were able to do? See my blog. Parys Technology...

Also, what kind of UPLOAD speed do you need from home in order to view content on your PDA? Thanks.
I used a 384kbps connection for a full screen VNC session on a Sony Vaio client with 1280*768 pixels. Was a little bit sluggish, but workable. As VGA is just about a third of that, even a 128kbps connection should suffice. Right now my own uplink is between 2 and 4 Mbps, so way more than enough!
