hey guys its brand a minimun from pocket now calm and this is a look at remote desktop mobile on the HTC hd2 windows mobile has had this capability for many years now but now with the hd2 we have multitouch thrown into the mix which makes a huge difference in your ability to navigate around a computer desktop so obviously remote desktop mobile lets you use the same remote desktop protocol on your phone that you would use on a desktop or a laptop a few notes on settings before I actually log into a computer and give the demonstration right now I have it set on high color because i'm using a local network so it's really fast if you're using any sort of cellular data you probably want to drop that down to 256 color just to make things a little bit faster i also have full screen unchecked so that i can use the keyboard and fit remote desktop to screen so that I can have the highest resolution possible so I'm going to click OK zoom into the screen a little bit and let's login someone hit connect and you're here we have the windows 7 login screen so I'm going to bring up the keyboard and bring it down a little bit so I can see and type in the password ok there we go and I'm going to click the login button this is welcome and here we are in my computer right now so right now my computer is open or computer as they call it in vista and 7 i can click down into the start menu as if i was sitting right in front of my computer and go to all programs now obviously everything is really small right now here's where the multi-touch comes in so i can actually pinch to zoom and use this little selector right how to get more precise and get closer on the screen so if we want to open say microsoft word i can do that with ease and zoom out and obviously seeing looking at those buttons up there and tapping on them is very difficult on such a small screen or relatively speaking so i can pinch to zoom go up to the top choose bold or italics are underlined zoom in that's pretty much as much as you can zoom in but it really helps and of course closing the program it helps to be able to zoom in to and it says do you want to save changes no and you can use it just as if you were sitting at your computer with a mouse and a keyboard so the multi-touch helps tremendously in using remote desktop mobile and it's great that HTC was able to integrate this into a client that has been around for a very long time but I don't think gets too much use so that's it for now for more coverage on the HTC hd2 be sure to subscribe to us on YouTube at youtube.com slash pocket now video that's it for now
