In January we had a first look at Onlive Desktop. The free iPad app provides a connection to a hosted desktop Windows environment, complete with Windows 7 and Microsoft Office. Well, according to a ZDNet post today, Microsoft believes that OnLive is in violation of licensing terms. Microsoft's VP of worldwide licensing and pricing, Joe Matz, brought up OnLive specifically in a blog post explaining the "Delivery of Desktop-like Functionality through Outsourcer Arrangements and Service Provider License Agreements." In this light-hearted, fun-filled post, Matz noted that "Some inquiries about these scenarios have been raised as a result of recent media coverage related to OnLive's Desktop and Desktop Plus services. Additionally, the analyst firm Gartner raised questions regarding the compliance of these services last week. We are actively engaged with OnLive with the hope of bringing them into a properly licensed scenario, and we are committed to seeing this issue is resolved." Read More
New iPhone, iPad and Android Apps for February 2012
Calendar16 Sun, 04 Mar 2012 19:00:00 UTC +00:00
Glancee (Free -- iOS, Android) Glancee helps you find people that are nearby. It recognizes other Glancee users based on proximity and gives you an alert when somebody you know or somebody interesting is in your general vicinity. I cannot figure out if this is a really cool way to make serendipitous connections or just kind of creepy and stalker-ish. Think of Glancee as kind of a location-based social network for people you may know or do not know but think you might like to know sometime. MLB At Bat ( Free with $14.99 subscription -- iOS, $14.99 Android) When I was a broke and in college and living away from Boston, the MLB.com mobile site that had pitch-by-pitch tracking was my favorite (and only) way to track the Red Sox on a daily basis in real-time. I was using it through Windows Mobile on a Samsung BlackJack and, at the Read More
OnLive Desktop brings Flash to your iPad
Calendar16 Thu, 23 Feb 2012 01:33:34 UTC +00:00
In January, OnLive introduced a new app called OnLive Desktop, which brings a full version of Windows 7 and Home Office to the iPad for free. OnLive Desktop beams the full version of Windows 7 to the iPad from their gigabit connected servers, and actually works quite well. Tonight, the OnLive crew has announced a new premium version of the app, called OnLive Desktop Plus, that brings Adobe’s Flash technology to the iPad… Apple has always resented Flash, leaving it out of both of its iPhone and iPad since conception. There is always a work around by using apps like VNC to view your desktop to access Flash, but since OnLive Desktop Plus is beaming Windows 7 from a server, they’re able to bring Flash on the iPad without using a desktop intermediary. OnLive’s founder Steve Perlman was the founder of Quicktime at Apple. Perlman told Wired he agreed with Apple’s move not to use Flash Read More

OnLive goes from gaming to Desktop and TV
Calendar16 Mon, 16 Jan 2012 14:30:00 UTC +00:00
The folks from OnLive, who we met up with last week at CES, are understandably apologetic about the fact that the iOS app for gaming hasn't yet shown up in the App Store. But though they may be sorry it hasn't appeared, OnLive's Bruce Grove is still mum on what the holdup is all about, only saying that the app is still going through Apple's "approval process." Is Apple holding the app up for breaking subscription rules, or did OnLive submit it a little late to the App Store over the holiday season? Grove doesn't budge, only saying that OnLive is currently "learning about the process a little more." At any rate, the gaming app is still due out "soon" -- whenever that may be. But that doesn't mean OnLive isn't working; The company did introduce its OnLive Desktop app last week on schedule, and that one is available right now Read More

OnLive Desktop Now Live, Streams Windows 7 to iPad
Calendar16 Fri, 13 Jan 2012 09:38:11 UTC +00:00
posted by Trey Trawick on Friday, January 13, 2012 at 1:38 am.   OnLive Desktop, a service you may have heard about earlier this week that streams a full-blown copy of Windows to your iPad, is now available to download through iTunes. OnLive uses the company’s classified compression algorithm to render movies, games, and more over the internet with minimal lag. The Desktop service allows iPad users to instantly “boot” into a Windows 7 cloud desktop and work with the full Office Suite—perfect for stiffs in suits who need to use Excel on the go, and students who don’t have access to a PC. Free accounts are limited to 2GB of storage, but that should be more than enough to baffle your friends. Read More
OnLive lanza un servicio de ordenador en la nube para iPad
Calendar16 Fri, 13 Jan 2012 08:09:28 UTC +00:00
OnLive, conocidos por su sistema de juego en streaming, acaba de lanzar un nuevo servicio llamado OnLive Desktop, en el que nos permitirán controlar de manera remota un ordenador precargado con diferentes programas como Microsoft Word, Excel y PowerPoint. La subscripción gratuita, además de permitirnos usar dichos programas, nos dará 2 GB de almacenamiento en la nube para usar en lo que queramos e instalar lo que necesitemos. En un futuro podremos subscribirnos a planes de pago, que ampliarán la capacidad. Por ahora la aplicación solo es compatible con iPad (creemos que solo con el 2), pero pronto tendrá también una versión para iPhone/iPod Touch. Read More

I have the desk top account. Downloaded the App then only to be told the I must wait for an email to activate the account? Why put the App in the App store when it is not functional? Don't release it until it works PLEASE!

It works just like a computers! But something that would be cool is internet explorer. If it has it then it would be 5 stars. Now i could do my homework without getting my slow labtop out. This app is 2 times faster!
