Hi All,
Wonder if some of you uses galaxy tab 10.1 for business purpose as well, specifically presentation. I only know it is possible from the commercial, but unsure whether that fits to day to day scenario or not.
Could you share your experiences? Connections (cables needed), display setting, etc.?
Is the quick office (or polaris?) good enough to replace power point?
Many thanks..
Try Slashtop Remote Desktop HD
Its HD desktop sharing from a Windows running machine and works quite good.
I've used it a few times to show product flyers as well as PDF presentation's. Works great and impresses my audience every time.

I've been using LogMeIn Ignition to remote into some of my desktops, but none of the supported resolutions seem to work on my gTab nicely. Anyone have any luck with some others that look good full screen on your gtab? It doesnt matter if it costs $
Pocket cloud is nice.

I use LogMeIn Ignition too. 1920x1080 works well for me.
It was posted in the QA board but I'll repost it here:
I really like 2X Client, you can get it free from the market here:

Worked awesome on my PC, couldn't get pocketcloud to work but 2X worked perfect.

I don't think I understand your issue. Are you talking about the clarity of your desktop (looks sort of like it's vga) in the LogMeIn window or the size (have to scroll for larger resolutions) of your desktop in it?
I've been using it for about four months now and my remote machine is a laptop on a docking station with dual monitors. I have no trouble accessing one or both of my remote screens via LogMeIn. Personally, I'm pretty happy with the price/features of it as it let's me leave the heavy laptop back at the office now.
I've used logmein as well as pocketcloud but I found teamviewer the easiest to use and less lag when using 3g.

I have phone My PC, but have not tried it on my gtab yet. I will try to get to it tonight and let you know.

I liked TeamViewer but it's only free for personal use. If you're using it for work then it's crazy expensive. I think if I remember correctly a single license was like $799 or more? Are they smoking crack?
PhoneMyPC is my preferred remoteting app:
https://market.android.com/details?id=com.softwareforme.PhoneMyPC
-No sound redirection (don't care)
-Requires server app to run on PC (don't care)
+Very fast, even over 3G
+Supports multiple monitors
+Gets around firewalls
+Has many view/action functions
Second on Pocket Cloud... I even use it occasionally with my little HTC Aria.

Really hoping to have this setup on my sg2 when its released. Basicly you dock your phone to a monitor, KB, mouse, speakers, etc.. then you boot up Ubuntu on your phone. Only for dual core phones. Allows you to do all your computing as well as phone calls, SMS, mms, etc. Can use your 4g or wifi. Can't wait.
Here is the official site for all the info. http://www.ubuntu.com/devices/android

Yeah I saw this on phandroid looks pretty sweet

This looks really promising. Hopefully it turns out better than the system that was attempted for the atrix.

Well, hmm, how would the dock work now... Is it for phones that already have a docking capability like the Atrix that now will have an Ubuntu alternative, or; will Samsung and other manufacturers make these docks so that their users can dock and use Ubuntu, or; will Ubuntu make a somewhat universal dock using the microUSB for example, which then spreads out into mice/keyboard/display. Overall, I'm just trying to see whether or not we're going to be included.

initially at least it didn't seem like this is going to come for us, right now it looks like the work they've done with the Atrix is mostly just to change webtop application that it normally runs with and I think I saw that it was only for devices with micro USB and hdmi output

Yeah, the HDMI thing lost my hope a bit, but I think our phones do have a way to output via HDMI, or at least, my point is, a dock could be made to support the GS2 if someone were to make it. But yeah, the line:
Easy to integrate with existing Android phones in development

Confuses me as it sounds like it can be easily integrable, but at the same time, I just really don't know. We'll see what happens, I guess...
The SGH-I777 does have an MHL port, just like the GT-I9100 and the Infuse - it just, for whatever reason, didn't come with an adapter in the box like the Infuse did.
So if we can output to a TV/Monitor via HDMI and MHL we could use the slick web top type application?
I wonder if this will be downloaded-able as an "App" or will need to be more built in to the framework/rom itself (seems more likely). Very exciting though, to have desktop capabilities on a phone would be awesome.
Plus the exynos running on our phone would be much smoother than the Tegra 2 running on the Atrix.
any news? when will be this ubuntu solution available?
Give that this is from Feb, think its safe to say no news. Lets try to avoid necro-bumping threads like this...
I recently started coveting a Logitech Wireless Rechargeable Touchpad T650 @staples and was trying to find a way to do it with my nexus 10.
I stumbled upon the following app Appwhich looks to be exactly what I want to do with the added bonus of showing the windows 8 desktop, but the website is all in japanese and I cant figure out how to get it to work. I have tried some of the more standard programs but they lack the true multitouch experience and now that i've seen the screen capture I want it. Has anyone found a way to do this reliably?
OK I just tried the app and it works great. I just translated the page and found the download link. The actual software is in English.
Here is the 64 bit versions http://www.tnksoft.com/soft/phone/winmulti/touch_win7_64.zip
And the 32 bit http://www.tnksoft.com/soft/phone/winmulti/touch_win7_32.zip

I also tried that app and it doesn't work that great, its kinda laggy and slow, quality isn't realy good.
Splashtop or Unified Remote works better.
Yeah, after getting the app to work I was underwhelmed. Was looking for something more that I could use on my desk while looking at my monitor. Not while looking at the nexus.
I've been using the non-HD version on my Galaxy Nexus. Haven't tried this yet on the Nexus 10. It's not as great as a real multitouch trackpad, but the only important feature for me is two-finger scroll

I'm looking into buying a chromecast dongle but wanted to get some opinions. I mainly want to use the mirroring feature and don't want to have to connect a cord to do it. I've read a few reviews on some dongles and some on them they say that the wifi used to mirror to the tv also interferes with the data wifi. Any suggestions on what I should buy would be appreciated. Thanks!

Chromecast is relatively the cheapest and best way to go. Just do it... you'll be happy you did.
Also Amazon has it for 30$ and so does Bestbuy. Never found it any cheaper than this. $5.50 lower than most others.
And chromecast has the mirroring feature to? Didn't see it in the features list.

I thinks is called streaming not mirroring but from what I understand you can serve any file to and play it as long as the device can share over your network.
I use the Netgear PTV3000, which does wireless mirroring. I bought it last year. It's been basically stuffed in the closet most of the time except for when i was travelling. It had a lot of stuttering, and disconnects. Basically had to close all apps, and had to keep the phone close to the device to minimize the issues.
Getting ready for a new trip. So took it out a few days ago and saw there was a new firmware update for it. All I can say it's a night and day difference. Now it streams video perfectly clear to the TV with my Note 3, no more stuttering, and do not have to keep the phone right by PTV3000 anymore.
I have the Chromecast as well the only issue is it doesn't play flash videos, and few other formats. An if your going to use it while in a hotel you will need a portable router as well. With the PTV3000 anything you have on your screen will stream to the tv, without needing a router.
A neat feature with the PTV3000, and the Note 3 stock video app. Is I can minimize the app, browse the web, or do other things while the video still plays on the tv without interruption.

it was a couple of days ago, but I'm using another way, and want to inform you.
Im Using Tronsmart T1000. And I had also a PTV3000, but I'm not so lucky with this.
The Tronsmart works easy, connect my Android Tablett (Samsung Tab 2) as well as my Note 3 . And I can connect my Windows Laptop with this Dongle.
Mirroring and other things are running fine.
I've bought this from Everbuying.com ;
http://www.everbuying.com/product535239.html (was cheap and easy). But you can also check it by Amazon.
http://www.amazon.com/Tronsmart-T1000-Mirror2TV-Wireless-Compatible/dp/B00H2D3N0M
Because of the features from T1000 I recommend it in all ways. It makes a WLan Connection to the Home-Router, that you can redirect from Tronsmart direct to the internet. And all connected devices are running fine.
I was wondering if anyone is using the N9 for presentations like PowerPoint? I have found that the N9 does not support Mircast or hardwire connections to projectors and I am completely taken back by this. I would never have expected this from Google, especially since they marked the N9 as a productivity tool.
I was using my Samsung Note 10.1 but it is stuck on 4.1.4 or something like that I have not rooted obviously. But it casts to Mircast and it own Samsung cast system. The problem is that it can not take advantage of the new PPT apps like the upgrade Polaris. You need at least 4.2.
So now I have a great device that can use the office apps (the real office is come soon for free) and I can not project.
Anyone have some uplifting thoughts on this?
dave
do a search for "Chromecast without WiFi" I could swear I read something recently that will let you cast directly to the CC. also.. you could consider one of the travel router options that let you have your own local firewalled WiFi setups/repeaters.. run about 40$. I'm already looking into them and will report back what I find.

I actually put in a couple of chromecasts to the TV screens at work for this purpose. wish google came up with an offline feature for stuff like this.
