LogMeIn Rescue Mobile Preview Available!

Anyone having read my past, remote controlling-related articles knows there already are some remote control solutions to remotely access a Windows Mobile device from under desktop Windows (or, for that matter, with VNC, any other platform, even including another Windows Mobile device).

Solutions allowing this include SOTI's excellent and, if you don't mind the price tag, by far the most recommended Pocket Controller (review HERE). Other, not that good solutions include the abandoned, not recommended PDA Controller, dotPocket, the, so far, only app to support over-the-firewall solution, MS PowerToys and the Windows Mobile version of the free VNC server, PocketVncServ. (See the review & comparison of all these titles HERE).

Now, LogMeIn, which has an already excellent and highly recommended "control the desktop from the PDA" solution thoroughly reviewed in the Desktop Access Bible, also started to offer something similar.

The new solution, as opposed to all of the existing ones (except for that of MS PowerToys , which also allows for avoiding having to have a direct, non-firewalled Internet address), offers a Web-based interface to control (even) remote Windows Mobile devices. Make sure you sign up for the beta if you'd like to grant remote access to any Windows Mobile device you or your company needs to remotely control / administer and the current, above-listed solutions aren't sufficient.
