Remote desktop and VPN conectivity work fine. Unfortunately, 640x480 isn't enough to handle certain dialogue boxes anymore. They run off both sides of the screen, making it impossible to click anything. Also, if you run Cisco products for your VPN, you will need a third party software package to connect to it. Third party Cisco VPN client software for the PDA is running about $80 right now. A bit pricey for a VPN client that normally comes for free on the PC platform.
