Knock yourself out!!! Way too small, a novelty IMO.

Now, screen sharing is another story. I spent the other morning printing refs from my living room, controlling my G5 PT rig with my laptop. A tiny bit of lag but full screen usage with full mouse and keyboard control. Cool.

Not sure if you're pulling our legs Drew, (the monitoring musta been rough) but Screen Sharing is certainly real useful for troubleshooting your folks computer.

no joke. In this case I didn't really need to hear it since they were sessions that were already roughed in from the night before. I just didn't feel like waiting for the realtime printing. But I've also done it with a long headphone extender.

just outa curiousity.... why are the tracks record-enabled on the computer screen and not on the iphone?

So how is ProTools running on Leopard for you?

Just for the record... you don't need to run Leopard on both machines to get this to work. For example, I've done the screen sharing thing from my laptop running Leopard to my G5 which is still running Tiger.

Not only that, but screen sharing is using VNC which is readily available for any machine running OS X. Leopard just makes it easier.

Great. very smooth and fast. Only thing not working that I've come across is Ren Desser.

That's interesting, apple claims you both need Leopard. Good to know.
