iPod as remote keyboard/mouse
Turns out iPod’s function very well as a keyboard/mouse combo over WiFi using the VNC protocol. All you have to do is search for the right application and install it, enable the VNC server on your desktop, and connect. Beats the hell out of buying a 20$ USD presentation remote.
iPod running ControlPad, remotely controlling my Ubuntu 8.10 laptop
I personally recommend an app called “ControlPad,” as I havent had a problem with it yet. And although the picture above doesn’t show it, it is possible to flip the keyboard sideways, giving you a wider keyboard but sacraficing your large left and right mouse click buttons.
