In case you missed it, Wilson Rothman at Gizmodo wrote an awesome article about one of the first Voodoo production units scored by a reviewer. While he gushes about how thin and sexy it is, he spends a considerable amount of time talking about the Voodoo Instant On Solution (VIOS). Here's a snippet of his comments:

Did you see it? One of the coolest notebooks of all time? The one that HP is going to put up against the MacBook Air? The one that's all carbon fiber with backlit keys? It has a little something on it called Voodoo IOS which gets you online seconds after you hit the power button. Sound familiar? It should because Voodoo IOS is Splashtop.

Splashtop was covered last week in USA Today. Normally, I don't blog about coverage that we're getting because it's kind of repetitive. But, there are two reasons that I wanted to mention this coverage:

1. It's USA Today - an important, very mainstream publication.
2. There were a lot of comments

Here's a little snippet of the article:

By now I'm sure you're aware of Google Chrome, a new web browser launched by Google. At DeviceVM, we are keenly aware of everything that happens in the Browser space, because for our lightning fast environment, the browser is the killer application. Just as an FYI, our current browser, called the Splashtop Browser, is based on Mozilla's browser (Firefox) and optimized to run super fast and limit security risks in the Splashtop environment.

Everyone's been talking about Splashtop on the new Asus Eee Box but we're not allowed to say anything until it's all "official-like." It drives me crazy - I always have the scoop on this stuff and I'm not allowed to say anything! :)

Everyone's been looking tired this week. It seems like all my friends at DeviceVM have been staying up late to watch the 2008 Olympic Games in Beijing. Whilst watching last night, I got somewhat tired of the same advertisements over and over again. I got out my laptop, powered on Splashtop and (instantly) began searching for online Olympic options. I found some great resources that pointed me in the right direction so I thought I'd forward them to you...

It was bound to happen eventually. Some smart folks over at Phoronix Forums have hacked Splashtop. Well, it's about time...

Those who read this blog probably know that I'm a fan of Twitter. If you'd like to read my overview of the microblogging service check out this post. As someone who is really into social media, like Twitter, I'm always excited to find a tool that lets me take advantage of the constant conversation that's going on. I love to show this tool to people because for those who don't use Twitter regularly, it is an amazing, magical thing.
