Going to a go-go everybody, with VNC2Go on Java ME tech

Did you ever want to see what's happening on your PC or Mac screen, from your mobile Java ME device? Well, why not use VNC2Go which is a Java ME MIDlet that lets you use any Java ME cell phone to tap into your desktop running a VNC server.

See:

It's a go-go, running Java ME VNC2Go

Here's a quote: 

 VNC2Go is a VNC client (viewer) that 
 runs on MIDP-enabled devices.  It 
 lets you control any desktop server 
 running a VNC service, from any 
 mobile device that supports Java 
 Midlets, such as mobile phones and 
 PDAs.
It's nice to see all these cool non-gaming Java ME applications out there in the market, taking full advantage of the ubiquity of Java ME on cell phones. Did I point out that this is yet another example of a non-gaming Java ME app? I did? Well, just wanted to make sure in case anyone out there isn't paying attention... ;-)

Hey Hinkmond,

It would be really nice to use this app on my iPhone/iPod Touch. How's the status of the JavaME VM for the iPhone?

Thanks,

Bruce

Hi Bruce,

Sorry, the ball's in Apple's court. They're the ones of course who ultimately decide what and what not can go on the iPhone. If they said yes, we'd have a Java ME VM for the iPhone ready to go in a jiffy. But to get them to say yes, you'd probably have to collect a bunch of people together to create a petition for Apple to allow Java ME to run on their iPhone and iPod Touch.

If you do get that going, you know I'll be the first to sign. ;-)
