Increase productivity with Remoter Pro 1.4.0

Remoter Labs released an update for Remoter Pro for the iPhone and iPad. The Remoter Pro 1.4.0 allows you to remotely control your Mac via Screen Sharing and Windows/Linux PCs using VNC or RDP standards. You get full external keyboard support or you can use the software keyboard. You also get a “virtual trackpad” of sorts that helps control the mouse intuitively.

Setup is made easy with Bonjour and NetBIOS. There is also Remoter Fusion for sound redirecting and setup as well as Telnet and SSH support. Remoter VNC 1.4.0 app is selling at half price this week at $5.99 on the Apple App Store.

BlackBerry Q5 coming to Koodo

The BlackBerry Q5 is the lower-cost model designed for emerging markets and a way for BlackBerry to bring the BB10 OS ecosystem to users of older devices like the Curve and Pearl lines whcih are still favoured in Asia-Pacific and Europe. Canadians will soon be getting the Q5 from Koodo.

The Q5 is listed at Koodo's website as coming soon on and will cost $50 with the Koodo tab plan or $350 outright. That sounds like a fair deal for what looks to be a solid smarpthone with a decent QWERTY keyboard and all the glory of BB10.
