ROCCAT Power-Grid
« on: March 07, 2012, 02:14:52 pm »
I heard about this application today and thought it was worth sharing.

Definitely an interesting concept.  Think Razer's LCD touchpad (On the SWTOR keyboard and the Blade laptop) but done using your smartphone, with huge possibilities.

Right now it's iOS only, but Android and WinMo apps are coming.

I signed up for the beta.

Applied for the Beta. I love stuff like this. Hopefully I can test it out and see if it's something the guild could use.

Has the Beta already started or are they just accepting apps at this time?

Bumping this.

Sign up. http://power-grid.roccat.org/?page=beta

Closed Beta has been going for probably a month or so now.  They're accepting applications again.  If this is something you'd be interested in, sign up.  If you signed up a year ago, sign up again.  They're accepting applications for both iOS and Android testing.

I was able to download the iOS app, but the website is currently having issues so I can't download the corresponding software.

The waiting game continues...

EDIT: Now it's working.

It's pretty cool once you understand how to configure everything.  It's like a stripped-down remote desktop client.  You can use it to launch literally any program on your machine, and even send commands for lock/sleep/shut down.

The PC client is installed. As of this morning, the app displays my IP but will not open when "connect" is pressed.
