well done down to every detail...
I downloaded this app a few days ago to control my Windows Media Centre. It runs a bit smoother on my Macbook pro, but that's probably just Windows :-).
Anyway - the app is great. The Trackpad function is totally usable and on the Mac the app always knows which program is running and gives you the right buttons for it - also the Taskbar is really useful.
I'm not so fuzzed about the air-mouse function and would prefer it to work with tilting like in marble maze :-) - or have an option to do so - but in fact, after getting used to it - it actually works and using it for presentations to just do general pointing and less precision stuff it would be great. Maybe that's in the end too slow and not precice either - the guys that made this app have surely played around with several options.
Keep up the good work !

Fantastic
Worth the money and worth watching the video on the main site for the simplest way to get to use it. Great work hope it works with OS 3.0 when that comes.
WOW
I'm so happy with this. If you have a PC and you're using the trackpad/touchpad mode, it's like replacing your laptop's touchpad with that of a mac! And that essentially means you can scroll down and up using two finger gestures, double tap to right click, even switch windows (alt+tab) by just clicking the up/bottom arrow (though no one uses that feature in a PC but that's a cool addition). Also, single tap for left click can be done, something that is lacking from mac's touchpad.
Not to mention the ability to control your music (wmp, itunes) from a distance.
The remote mode does need some time to get used to but for $1.19 it's a steal.
I hope it can do something like apple's newest magic mouse features (swipe left, right, etc) in the future.
NB: the troubleshoot might have all the answers you might need to configure the settings. remember to turn on your iphone's wifi.

One Of The Best Apps!!!!!
This has to be one of the best apps I have ever paid for!! This apps is one of a few apps that has put a smile on my face when using it! I love this app. It is WELL WORTH the buy!! Even if you think you may out use it much get it, as the amount of times I have needed a mouse because of them breaking or batteries running out. This keeps me working until I get a new one, but I have found myself using more even if I do have a working mouse. Because of all the hot keys and ease of use this app makes a standard mouse seem like a waist of time. So long story short this app is a BIG 5 star for me.

This thing actually works
Holy crud, when I bought this I thought it wouldn't work, but voilà, all you have to do is buy it, go to the site and install the stuff on your computer free, which takes about 12 seconds, and there you go, it works perfectly.
Great
Great! Easy to set up. Use it for my media pc on the tv. Only thing missing is some form of scroll. Buttons on the mouse where a wheel would normally be just result in vista trying to switch between apps. Perhaps the wrong thing is being sent to the os. Maybe something on the right hand edge like laptop mouse pads for scrolling up and down pages. Also had it once not respond to button clicks though the mouse pointer would still move around. Otherwise saved me from going and getting a small wireless keyboard.

Don't waste your money!
The looks nice but that's about it.
Mouse pad: even at different update frequencies the mouse pad feature is so laggy it's useless.
Keyboard: actually tried to type a number of sentences on the virtual keyboard, although the keyboard on the iPhone screen shows all pressed keys as recognized only some actually seem to be transmitted to the desktop computer.
I have tried different configuration option, different Mac computers, different network configurations... essentially wasted an hour to make this work but no luck.
I wish Apple would either make sure apps in their store actually worked as advertised or have some way to get back your money.
In the meantime thanks for wasting AU$2.49 of my money... should have read the reviews first and used one of the free apps instead.

A great gadget/app
Lets make a point clear - this is hardly an essential app, especially if you don't connect your PC up to a TV or a super huge monitor. BUT it is fun and a very very polished app - you'll find ways to use it! The touchpad mode is far easier to use but the air mode is fun if not a little difficult for finer movements. As a remote it works brilliantly and allows customisation. Although I have a Logitech diNovo Desktop with a remote I'm going to try to use this as much as I can is just so much slicker. Time to keep that iPod charged up!

Works well with mini mac
iPod Touch gen one has worked will with Air Mouse Pro. Both my laptop PC and mini mac work with the iPod Touch using Air Mouse. Still working on getting a direct link over wifi between computer and iPod Touch. Still need a keyboard and mouse to set up the iPod touch with the computer but then a touch pad in the hand is all one needs. My battery does run down fast but over an hour is fine. Regards Roddy

Great
This is a very smooth and easy to use app. While I found the actual air mouse functionality to be quite painful to get used to and gimmicky, I love the trackpad and keyboard.
This is especially great for those of you hooping up your PC to a tv and not wanting to lug around your wireless keyboard/mouse.
Now if only they could make a wireless tv remote control app.....
