Okay, so here’s the deal. I’m a techno geek, but there’s one thing I haven’t tried, until now.
Ever since the release of JAWS 6.2 and Pac Mate 3.0, there has been the ability to connect to Active Sync wirelessly and then use the Pac Mate to control the computer. Well, I thought it was a neat idea, but I didn’t feel like setting up my wireless connection to connect to Active Sync. Yesterday though, I decided to do a remote connection using my standard USB connection just to see what it was like, and realized that it was really a lot of fun. This morning then, I took it a step further. As of right now I’m sitting in my recliner with my Pac Mate, but I’m controlling my computer and using all the applications that run on it. I didn’t realize how nice this feature truly was until now. The only thing I can’t do with this is hear sounds and things. But I figure if I want sounds bad enough I can use the actual computer.
So now when I’m too tired to go to my computer, or just don’t want to use my computer for whatever reason, I’ve got an alternative way to update here. Technology is just awesome!
