But instead, I recommend LogMeIn Ignition and Splashtop Remote Desktop. We all know how incredibly powerful and convenient the iPad 2 is so there’s no need to get into all that brochure talk.

LogMeIn Ignition works on iPad/iPhone, Android and Windows Once the iPad and Windows desktop client apps are correctly set up, accessing folders and files is a no-brainer affair. If you’re an iPad user like me who takes work on the road a lot working out of coffee shops, hotel lobbies, overseas assignments sometimes you have an urgent need to access files stored on the home computer. What did it for me was simply the confidence I got from strong positive reviews from happy users so taking the plunge wasn’t as daunting an experience as what many remote desktop software in the past had failed to inspire. There are far more uses for these two Apps than I care to mention and if you take the time to read their exhaustive list of features, you may even think surely they’re too good to be true. It no longer matters whether you have static or dynamic IP address! I have a Windows XP Pro desktop and a Windows 7 Ultimate laptop both running Splashtop Remote client and Internet Discovery always locates both computers on WiFi at home and on 3G when I’m outside. Splashtop Update: Although Splashtop states Internet Discovery as an experimental feature, I have found it to be highly reliable.
