Works nice!

Like so many other things on the Pre...it "just works".

The pinch-zoom works smoothly...portrait or landscape.

The only issue I had was installing it on the Pre. I'm at work so I can't do it via USB/SDK. I tried to install through filecoaster. It would download and just say "Downloaded"...not "Installed". I did this a couple of times, with the same result. When I'd look on the launcher, the app wasn't installed.

I ended up sticking the .ipk on a website I run and using the weblink function of filecoaster to point to my personal copy of it. I still just got "Downloaded", but when I minimized it, there was the "PreVNC" icon in the launcher so, I'm not sure which method actually worked.

I'm not sure if I was just impatient or what. I've installed a dozen apps, both via filecoaster and via the SDK method (before filecoaster came along).

EDIT: Found a minor glitch. Connect to the computer, turn the Pre to landscape (everything works fine), use the "back" gesture to disconnect, and you're at the connection/dialog screen...in landscape. However, turning the Pre back to portrait, the connection/dialog screen stays landscape. If I log back in, flip it back to portrait, gesture "back", it's back to the correct orientation.
