I've seen several threads on this subject. Is anyone successfully using BBO on an iPad2? I'd love to get the details.

Thanks...

same o same o
I use Jump desktop which is remote control software so I am using windows 7 on another computer from my ipad.
I stylus is def. a plus
I tired ONLIVE DESKTOP PLUS but so far BBO or ODP have not worked out problems on being able to log on, so I cancelled that account
and went back to Jump Desktop.

I know when we took a trip last summer was able to access my machine at home from the car with the Ipad that had 3G and worked fine,
there is a lot of remote control software out there for the ipad so you have different choices but they all basically do the same thing.

ONLIVE DESKTOP PLUS
run Windows 7 from you ipad and includes broswer(flash enabled) and excel, word, and powerpoint for $5 a month.
shows alot of promise, but you cant log onto BBO with it...Uday says is cause BBO wont accept proxy connections.

I think it would be more accurate to say that proxies and BBO are incompatible. Proxies expect the data to follow the HTTP protocol, and BBO uses a custom protocol, which the proxies don't understand.

I tried ISwifter. I can get the graphics but the BBO website isn't as reponsive as I'd like. I couldn't scroll through all the tables. Anyone else have more luck?
