No this is not an aillness …
The Redfly is an awesome companion to my Palm Treo Pro (or any Windows Mobile device for that matter).
It is basicly a Netbook without storage, powerfull CPU, etc. An “empty” device which connects to you MObile device and acts as a Remote Desktop …
- Battery Life : 9 hrs +
- Possibility to connect external devices via 2xUSB and 1xVGA
- Charge you mobile device via USB
I did notice that the price increased again, that had a discount until last week. As the price is around that of a Netbook I expect they will drop the prices …
The Redfly is awesome! I’ve been using one for about year.
A nice concept.
But doesn’t Microsoft have a similar application you can install on a netbook or notebook with there functionalities? I really like the concept, but I would prefer to use my netbook or notebook for this purpose in stead of buying a new device.
Jeroen,
Sure there are several option to make a ‘regular’netbook / laptop the ‘remote control’ of your mobile device.
The difference is that the Redfly has a battery life of 9+ hours, no local software except for some comms software, so it requires zero maintenance, etc.
