MacOSX on PocketPC
After charging the batteries of the Fujitsu Siemens PocketLoox 720 for the first time overnight, I installed aVNC viewer for PocketPCs with VGA resolution via Bluetooth. Then I set the resolution on my Mac from 1280*854 to 640*480 and connected from the PocketLoox via WLAN. Voila, MacOSX on PocketPC! Great.
Afterwards I switched my Mac back to 1280*854, and before I reconnected from the VNC client on the PocketPC I forgot to change the Mac to VGA resolution. Oh wonder! Even though, OSXvnc1.4 doesn´t officially support server side resolution scaling, the Pocket Loox shows the FULL 1280*854 MacOSX screen scaled to its VGA screen. Possibly client side scaling? Everything quite small, but still usable! Big wow factor!
Now to VoIP: next I will install Skype and a SIP client on MacOSX and PocketPC and try to make a link from VoIP to and from the legacy phone world (mobile phones and landlines). Keep on reading!
A Newton replacement?
