4OD app now out!! Anyone used it yet, I'm just downloading now :)

EDIT: Early impressions are good, certainly loads quicker than iPlayer PQ looks better as well. Just watching an episode of Friday Night Dinner now :)

Why do you think it will have a price soon? The BBC iplayer app is still free:confused:

I got the VEVO app as well, saves ever having the buy music videos from iTunes again :)
 
Iv been wondering this for a while now, why doesnt the iPad not ship with a calculator app!?
Surely it's something that should be there!?

check the description on itunes, it says "free to download for a limited time only" just going by that
 
Display Link

Its an app that utilizes the ipad as a second (or 3rd..4th....) screen for your windows PC.

It works very well, just requires a tiny bit of software running on the host machine.

Currently FREE!!

Defo worth a d/l
 
Thanks for that, i downloaded the app and the demo seemed pretty useless and then its £6 to get the ability to convert Spanish to English.

Definately not going to be bought for the holiday to Spain!
 
As far as I can tell, it needs its own streaming app. Seems to work well enough from what little I have played with it, though of course perhaps not ideal if you have an existing setup.
 
I gave Splashtop a try and then bought it, it works really well. It uses it's own server software, but that allows you to stream video and sound which I don't think you can do under normal VNC. There's a free version that gives you a five minute demo.
 
I did try it briefly with one video file stored on a netbook and found it to be less than watchable. Not sure if that was down to the video file, the netbook or the network speed though. Due to stability issues, I am currently running at G speeds, having had a few issues with my router in N mode. One of these days I will have to actually update the router firmware and see if that helps.
