According to The Verge,OnLive’s Window 7 iPad app is now available in the iTunes Store.

The Verge has a video of Windows 7 streaming to an iPad that is “a desktop complete with Word, Excel, PowerPoint and mulititouch apps, far smoother than your average remote desktop solution.”

(I couldn’t get the video to work)

Tablet Legal has a detailed follow up on the initial review of CloudOn.

I own two Boxwave¹ styluses (affiliate link) for my iPad. They rarely get used because I find that I don’t have a need for a stylus most of the time.

But, if you’re in the market for an iPad stylus, you probably won’t find a more comprehensive guide than Macworld’s stylus buying guide.

Josh Barrett, from Tablet Legal, has a walkthrough of the new CloudOn service.

From Fraser Speirs commenting on the advice the people receive, even from Apple Geniuses, to manually kill apps to free up memory:

the iOS multitasking bar does not contain “a list of all running apps”. It contains “a list of recently used apps”. The user never has to manage background tasks on iOS.

There are exceptions, but none that you can do anything about.

I didn’t know this neat little trick to get rid of the notification.

From MacRumors:

Silicon Valley startup CloudOn today released a free iPad app [App Store] that aims to bring the functionality of Microsoft Office to the iPad. The iPad app actually serves as an interface for the full cloud-based app on CloudOn’s servers, and thus requires an Internet connection to function, but offers what seems to be a remarkably functional implementation of Microsoft Word, Excel, and PowerPoint, all integrated with file storage and syncing through Dropbox.

For those who can’t wait for Office for iOS.
