I used to use VNC on my Psion 5mx through the Java VNC viewer. I did experiment using the IR link on my mobile phone to my Psion a few times to check e-mail with pine in an xterm. I upgraded to a Palm Zire71 after my Psion died and VNC is the one thing I'm missing most. If I get a bluetooth phone, I'll probably buy a bluetooth upgrade for my Palm (if one gets releases) to use VNC on my Palm rather than get a phone with the display built in.
I can see why a company will not want to provide multi-OS support officially, as if Linux changed they don't want the liability of having to support the changes. But, if someone in that company was already half written a driver, even if it is buggy as hell, surely they should give this away to the user community as a starting point rather than forcing people to reverse engineer their own solutions.
I work for a company that is based in San Diego but I'm based at a client in Stevenage, UK. I frequently take a day off from Stevenage and work at home over a VPN to the San Diego machines. I don't think I'd like to work from home full time, but it is great to have the option to do this.
Savings for the employer are that when there is a traffic jam or freak snow storm, the employee can continue to work from home.

The big story should be about the air conditioning system for this baby.
When you buy a new device how long before new technology makes it rubbish? I'd like to see life expectancy warnings on products.
