Telexy SymRDP For Touch-enabled Handsets

The folks behind SymSync have now announced their release of the SymRDP application we mentioned briefly.

Their newest application SymRDP is an application that let’s you access your computer remotely. Via the touchscreen on your Symbian-powered handset you can control the mouse or use the virtual keyboard simulating a 84-key keyboard to perform actions you normally would do in front of your computer. What’s neat is that if your handset has a physical keyboard it will map the keys as close to a computer keyboard as possible.

Use cases for this application can be that you have some documents at your home computer you want to show someone or you want to send those documents to your handset. Just fire up SymRDP and send the documents via email to your Symbian-powered handset such as the Sony Ericsson Satio without having to go to your workplace or home first.

The application will soon be added to the Telexy Network Commander, the full suite of applications they have to offer. Should you decide to buy their Telexy Network Commander today, you are eligible to upgrade to the version with SymRDP included for free. You can get more information and download a trial of the application from Telexy.

Have you used applications from Telexy and are you excited about this newcomer?

Cheung Yuen Wong had his first meeting with Symbian when he acquired the N-Gage Classic phone. Swiftly after he became addicted and amazed at the possibilities in which the Symbian operating system offered in terms of usability and power. You can follow Cheung on Twitter at @Wampyre.

    That’s what I like about Symbian-Guru!
    You guys always the first one to bring really interesting news.
    In short. Downloaded, installed and got it running in 5 min!
    Got access to W2008 computer in my office and to my XP Pro at home.
    Neat! Works like a charm. I think it is the best soft on my N97.
    Virtual keyboard is really useful, I like it a lot.
    Thanks for the hint about Telexy Network Commander, it looks like a killer bundle indeed!
    Will play with it tomorrow.
    Thanks again. You are the best!

    One more quick comment for others who may try this soft.
    During install on my N97 I’ve got a message like Software not compatible with phone and a few messages saying about Component is missing. Selecting Continue lead me farther to another similar messages, but at the end installation was successful. The software is working fine with default RDP port and so far I cannot figure out if it is possible to change it.

    Tomorrow I will show this soft to my network admin in the office, I’ll bet he will be looking for hammer for his IPhone. :)))

    How does this part compare with OVI Files, with other advantage of 10GB of free web storage?

    @Rick T.

    Brilliant. Telexy have always been good at making their applications and hearing that it works great is nice. I do wonder a bit about compatibility with other operating systems, though I assume compatibility with Macs are given.

    @mbrett

    For one, this application is not meant to share your files online as OVI Files are. While you do connect to OVI files to gain access to files you don’t have access to the whole computer. That is on OVI files you have access to folders on your computer that you share.

    With this application you can connect wirelessly to you home computer or office computer and e.g. work on the computer as if you were in front of it. Open the webbrowser, open a office document, open music etc.
    It’s not that full fledged as using remote desktop from another computer as the screen is smaller, but it’s basically the same.

    To be honest I have only tried OVI Files a couple of times and that was during it’s initial launch and it never quite worked 100% for me.

    It’s great but it scales every window on PC to make it fit on N97′s screen and doesn’t revert back when I end remote connection :/ Really annoying.

  • votano

    Why would I need OVI if with SymRDP I will have full access to all files on my computer? Ovi is just for kids downloading ringtones and things like that.
    Last time I visited OVI to find out that there are no real software for N97 at all. Just a few items comparing to hundreds on Handango.

    Anyway SymRDP is awesome! The best software ever!

    To Krisq.
    Change resolution in configuration and all will be just fine.
