StreamToMe - behold - how to unlock the power of your ipad!!

StreamToMe is THE software for streaming the contents of your desktop/laptop to your ipad/iphone/itouch


step 1) download the client server on your desktop (pc or mac)
step 2) purchase the client software for your i-product
step 3) launch the server - let it load and accept the firewall settings.
step 4) launch the software program off your i-product and you will see your server as part of the list and it streams with the highest quality.

Please make sure you fiddle around with the settings to have it optimal.

Also for those who have extra accessories - you can buy a cable to link up with your tv!!!

Dell - how i love you.

For those who dont like outsourced Customer Service and Tech Support - i encourage you to be a dell customer.

on the week of December 21st - it was time for me to have my M1330 XPS laptop serviced. Its under the warranty of complete care for 3 years. ( i still have 445 days to it). After speaking to someone in tech support - recorded everything - Brown Box for a return to depot is in order. Wonderful! (as it was expected).

Week of December 25th - Jan 1st - no box.
Called Jan 4th - customer rept apologize for the delay due to holiday and i should expect one no later than Friday.
Jan 5th Brown Box came it with a return label via Purolator.
OFF IT WENT.
ETA: 7 business days.

Jan 10th - Brown Box came back - after inspection they repaired everything and included a note: your battery is kaput - please call Dell for a replacement.

No tks dell for that but tk so much for getting it back for another 445 days run before warranty runs out.

Cost for this? 0$ but 20 days with a slow laptop.
