This is another remote access program that I thought I'd give a try. It is called I'm in Touch by 01 Communique. It basically gives you access to your PC from any remote location from a PC,laptop, PDA, pocket PC, Blackberry, Treo or cellphone. You can even check your email remotely (Microsoft Outlook or Outlook Express recommended). Also you can transfer files and invite other users online for presentations. If only it made my coffee remotely. Just kidding.
Setup up was simple enough where you input your user name and password for your host PC. Installing it doesn't take to long and I was ready to go. To access your PC you login at the I'm in Touch website. It downloads a remote viewer program(small application quickly loads) and your connected. You'll only see a small "Im in touch" link at the top of your screen. Hover over it and it gives you a drop down bar which will give you options such as file transfer etc. One thing that was nice that I didn't notice much slowdown on the remote PC as far as performance. That was significant because it was an older PC using Windows 2000. To be honest I didn't a tremendous amount of time on it but I liked it enough that I'll use it again in the future.
If your looking for a simple remote access program you may give this a try. Setup seemed intuitive and so is using it. I do recommend it.
