Santa Barbara, CA (PRWEB) December 05, 2011
Xform Computing, Inc. announces a giant leap forward in mobile productivity by enabling mobile access to Cloud-based productivity and business websites, and web conferencing: The latest release of Xform’s AlwaysOnPC? App has completed testing that demonstrates excellent mobile compatibility with the top online productivity websites, bringing users rich functionality of these services on iOS and Android devices.
A growing number of Cloud-based services have built their offerings on Flash, Java script or applets, Silverlight, and even many HTML5 features which don’t work correctly on the native iPad or Android Browsers. Thus, only a subset of the functionality of these sites is available on mobile devices. Examples include Zoho?, Microsoft’s Office 365?, Quickbooks Online, Google? Apps, and many more. The AlwaysOnPC Mobile App bridges this gap.
AlwaysOnPC gives users access to a complete virtual computer directly from their iPad or Android device, liberating them to use these powerful services. For example, using Chrome inside AlwaysOnPC users can perform tasks in Zoho, Office 365, or Google Docs that are often difficult or impossible on mobile apps and browsers: Create, upload or import documents and presentations from online storage or other web repositories; Use full editing features, including the ability to create, re-touch, insert and re-size images, graphics, tables and charts into documents or Powerpoint slides; Even copy and paste this rich content between apps, just like on a computer.
AlwaysOnPC also enables mobile collaboration: The Zoho Meeting web conferencing/screen-sharing solution relies on Flash and Java-applets and does not work on native mobile browsers. However with AlwaysOnPC, users can initiate and host Zoho Meetings from iPad, iPhone, or Android with participants on any device or computer. They can share their AlwaysOnPC screen to conduct presentations, demonstrations, webinars and more, and even delegate presenter controls to participants.
Similar mobile compatibility challenges face Office 365, Quickbooks Online, and even Google Apps such as Sites or Docs editing (especially Powerpoint presentations) which rely on desktop browser technology. In addition to unlocking the full productivity promise of these cloud-based services on mobile devices, AlwaysOnPC also includes the OpenOffice suite, Gimp image editor, InkScape illustration program and Dropbox access.

More Apple Computer Press Releases
Fulshear, TX (PRWEB) November 01, 2011
JaguarPC, an experienced provider of shared hosting, virtual private server (VPS) hosting, and dedicated server hosting solutions, announced today a one-of-a-kind affiliate giveaway that rewards client referrals with the chance to win a brand new Apple iPad 2. One JaguarPC web hosting affiliate will be selected to receive the iPad 2 at the end of November, giving every affiliate an additional incentive to share information on JaguarPC?s services.
?We are incredibly excited to give our hosting affiliates the chance to win an iPad 2,? says Greg Landis, CEO at JaguarPC. ?But we didn?t want to just draw somebody out of a hat. Instead, we?re using a system of proportional entries ? for every referral that an affiliate sends our way between November 1st and November 30th, we will give them one entry into the iPad 2 giveaway. That means the more proactive an affiliate is, the more chances they have to win a brand new iPad 2.?
The Apple iPad 2 is one of the most desirable pieces of technology in the world, offering a powerful tablet computing experience that is ideal for both work and play. Out of the box, iPad 2 comes equipped with iOS 5, the latest iteration of Apple?s award-winning mobile operating system, which includes intuitive multi-touch gestures and a range of useful software including Safari and iBooks. The iPad 2 also features an HD camera that, along with the included FaceTime software, gives users the opportunity to chat with any iOS user in the world. Naturally, with all these features and thousands of great applications just a few taps away, iPad 2 is at its best with plenty of storage. JaguarPC has selected the larger 32GB model for its affiliate giveaway with this in mind.
?When we decided we wanted to run a giveaway for our web hosting affiliates, we thought long and hard about the kind of prize that we would want,? says Landis. ?An iPad 2 seemed like a great choice ? but why give our winner the lowest specification model available? Our existing web hosting affiliate program members already know our reputation for giving generous payouts. Our choice of a 32GB iPad 2 is in-line with the high payouts we already offer, and we?re proud to say that one affiliate, new or existing, could potentially be the owner of an iPad 2 when we announce the winner on December 1st.?
The JaguarPC Affiliate Program rewards members for customer referrals using a tiered payout system ? the more customers an affiliate brings to JaguarPC, the more money they can earn. For each of their first 5 referrals, affiliates earn $ 65, giving them the chance to start making money online quickly. However, the payout level increases dramatically when affiliates make a longer-term commitment to JaguarPC. For 6-10 referrals, affiliates receive $ 80 and any customer beyond the 10th nets an astonishing $ 110 payout ? one of the highest in the web hosting industry. By joining the JaguarPC Affiliate Program free of charge, affiliates can start earning money immediately and build a significant and regular income. The addition of an iPad 2 is sure to see JaguarPC?s dedicated team of affiliates work even harder over the next 4 weeks.
?Becoming a JaguarPC hosting affiliate is a great way to earn extra money online,? says Landis. ?We?re confident that new hosting affiliate program members will see how easy it is to sell our VPS hosting or dedicated server hosting services and stick with us longer. Of course, moving into next year, we have new ideas and contests to give our affiliate network the treatment they deserve. JaguarPC web hosting affiliates helped us get to where we are today so we will always find new ways to give something back.?
JaguarPC?s 13 year growth as a web hosting industry leader has been in part due to the work of hosting affiliates and word of mouth advertising, but is also the result of the dependable hosting services and excellent customer support that JaguarPC consistently delivers. With the launch of such a generous giveaway along with high payout rates, there is more reason than ever to join the JaguarPC Affiliate Program today.
Customers who are interested in finding out more about JaguarPC?s Affiliate Program and the November iPad 2 Giveaway are encouraged to visit jaguarpc.com for more details and to get started as a hosting affiliate.
