VMware View on the iPAD.

At VMworld VMware reached for the now compulsory business tool – the iPad and demonstrated View 4.5.  I have to say that I’m rather impressed with

This is a big plus from VMware for many reasons, firstly this is a real View client with support for PCoIP.  More significantly though, VMware has worked hard to get the user interface right.  The client provides some good multi-touch gesture support with a full Windows keyboard.

VMware has overlaid a touchpad on top of a full screen Windows desktop to provide an iPad user experience.

Most importantly, the client is free.
