Introduction

Thank you for downloading BlueRemote! BlueRemote turns your Palm device into a standard Bluetooth mouse and keyboard.

  • Make your presentations impactful by switching slides while freely moving around! Don't be tied to your notebook!
  • Enhance your coach potato factor by controlling your PC's DVD player without getting up from your sofa!
  • Improve your musical taste by switching MP3 tracks from your kitchen on the PC in the living room!
  • Impress your friends and loved ones with your magical remote control abilities!
Works out of the box.

BlueRemote works with most operating systems, including Microsoft Windows XP, Mac OS X and GNU/Linux. There is no need to install special drivers on the PC: BlueRemote works fine with the standard drivers that come with your system!

Emulates a full PC keyboard.

Tap on on-screen buttons, use Graffiti input or use your device's built-in keyboard to enter any key on a standard PC keyboard.

Familiar and convenient touchpad-like mouse interface.

Use your touchscreen just like a notebook's touchpad, or use your five-way navigator to move the mouse pointer on the PC.

Enhanced support for the Treo built-in keyboard.

Enter shortcuts such as Control-C, Alt-F, or even the mighty Control-Alt-Del directly on your Treo keyboard! Works on all OS 5.x Treo devices, including the new Treo 700p.

Free Ten-Day Evaluation Period.

Try before you buy! BlueRemote is free to try for ten days, after which you will need to purchase a registration code.
