Seems like a pretty good deal to me. I normally use VNC
<http://www.realvnc.com/> for access to my home server from a mobile laptop,
but this has the advantage of reformatting things to fit a small mobile device
screen.

Also, it's not just for Motorola -- Avvenu is actually free to everyone:
<http://www.avvenu.com/>

I'm adding it to the Cingular FAQ.

What's wrong with it? Is it different than current desktop sharing between
computers, like go to my PC, which seems to work well? I assume you connect
to a server that authenticates you and sits between you and your computer.
