I just tried it, it's pretty amazing for a remote desktop application. Got SplashtopHD app for Android ($4.99). For HD videos, the framerate might just be a touch off, but it's a lot better than what I expect from remote desktop. The best part is that it gets around all the mobile restrictions that sites like Hulu puts on tablets and phones.Splashtop supposedly works well for streaming video, including Flash video, from a PC.

Interesting as I've been quite happy with iPad apps so far...I have a ssh app, remote desktop app, decent IMAP support, good Word/Excel/Powerpoint interoperability, decent drawing apps, GotoMeeting and a swath of good video software.
What exactly are you looking for?
Sadly there's a cost involved with supporting the iPad because of its resolution and screen size, so creating an iPad version of an application often isn't trivial and requires a reasonable amount of effort on behalf of the developer. The developer might choose to make the effort (many do, including Universal apps with bundled UIs for each device class) or it might not.But for me the idea that there is an iOS app available but just not for my device because it's merely the bastard child of the iPod/iPhone and thus isn't worthy of support is frustrating.
To most people who are fine just using the web browser, they'll likely be able to manage. But for me the idea that there is an iOS app available but just not for my device because it's merely the bastard child of the iPod/iPhone and thus isn't worthy of support is frustrating.
You don't have to hope for that. Just ask anybody's patent lawyer.Like I said, I just hope one of the big boys steals or copies their better ideas at some point.
