Are you a business professional who falls under the regime of an IT department that does not let you install the apps and devices you want? What happened to basic freedoms? What happened to choice? Does anyone realize how hard your job is?

Or… are you the IT manager who has to manage hundreds, nay thousands of devices and is constantly amazed at the audacity of workers who are still trying to slide one past you? Oh yeah, like that iPhone will ever be secure enough? Does anyone realize how hard your job is?

The singular goal of DeviceVM and the Splashtop technology is to get you to whatever you're looking for, quickly and efficiently. We're the inventors of this space and continually think of ways to innovate. Sometimes we innovate by solving large technical problems like getting your machine up and functional in a matter of seconds. Other times, we observe how people are using technology and attempt to make interface changes that improve the experience of using Splashtop.

There's no doubt that the instant internet revolution is here. A couple weeks ago we announced that we are now working with both Acer and Sony. Add that to HP, Asus, LG and Lenovo. We're on a roll and millions of people are booting up to Splashtop every day. We get lots of feedback about Splashtop - most of it is very complimentary and often we get suggestions how to make it better.

I've made no secret of my love for gadgets big and small. It's something about the unboxing of a new gadget that makes me long for more and more. Am I the only one that blocks extra time on the calendar for Apple keynotes so I can watch it again online? Does anyone else just go to Best Buy for no reason whatsoever? Do you have a room where you retire your old gadgets to? If you answered "yes" to any of these questions then allow me to suggest a new site called, "gdgt."

It's hard to keep up with all the great new devices out there by OEMs who are doing truly innovative things to make the consumer experience better and better. Every day I drool at all the shiny new devices featured on my favorite gadget blogs. It's nice to see Splashtop showing up on more and more of them. We're excited to announce a couple of new OEMs using Splashtop to bring instant internet to millions more consumers out there. This week we get to debut two! One by Acer and another by Sony.

You know we love us some Twitter! One of the reasons we love Twitter is because we get to more easily connect with people that are using Splashtop AND we get to be real and actually develop awesome relationships. A few of us marketing types are on Twitter from Splashtop. You should follow us because we're cool, good looking and have our own idiosyncrasies which make us endearing (like an old stuffed animal). Here's the rundown...

I have a tech job. And, like the throngs of other people in Silicon Valley we all have parents who don't even try to understand what we do because, you know...it's technical. "Oh he works in technology," my Mom would say to friends and family at holidays. No other details. She never tried to understand. Well all that changed last week when NBC came into the DeviceVM office to do an interview. I've tried to explain a thousand times what Splashtop does because I think it's easy enough to understand. But, my mother just says, "that sounds real nice honey." I know she doesn't get it.
