Ultimate "Droid Does" story

All right, first of all this is an absolutely true story.

I'm sitting in the Service Managers office at a local car dealership today. He has a Droid and every time I go in I always show him a new app or something cool he didn't know his Droid could do.

I told him that I had found the coolest app, "PhoneMyPC". I opened it up to show him, clicked on my Home PC and told him that we were looking at my PC desktop at my house. He was in awe!!

While we were watching, my screen suddenly filled with little thumbnails of naked women. I started freaking out, not knowing what was going on. I then realized I had just busted my 11 year old son looking up porn for the first time.

From across town. ON MY DROID!

As a Dad, I wasn't sure how to feel, but my buddy told me that it's one of things that every Dad goes through at some point and we both had a good laugh.

Needless to say, my son and I had a good talk when I got back home today.

Just needed to share.

So, he couldn't blame this on anyone else in the house? Like, "My friend Jimmy did it!"

Kinda of like when my mom found a pack of cigarettes in my jeans when I was a teenager, I told her "My friend smokes, his parents will get mad at him if they find out so he gives me his cigarettes before we go home at night so he won't get in trouble"... my mom bought that hook, line and sinker.

I still feel bad about it.
 
Great story, OP but don't forget to check under the kids bed for any Penthouse/Playboy or even Hustler Magazines. Some kids may still do it the old way. :D
 
ha
could have been worse, it could have been gay porn thumbnails that started popping up....

Haha you beat me to it but it was still really funny. Yeah I use phone my pc at work quite a bit for looking up scheduling info. I really hope they haven't abandoned it. I know logmein is coming soon but phone my pc is so painless to use.
 
LOL. Fantastic story, OP. We've heard of lots of parents keeping an eye on their kids, but yours is the first (and surely will remain the funniest) 'busted' story!

Sound IS coming! So is better performance, file copy, better security, login support, and I could go on. We're working as hard and fast as we can. Stay tuned!
 
@knotbeerdan,

What do you mean? PhoneMyPC supports text input from any keyboard. The only known text-input issues are:

1) If your Phone and PC software are using mismatched versions, text-entry might not work. Please update to the latest.

2) Swype. Using the Swype keyboard as a "touch-per-letter" keyboard works fine, but 'swyping' does not currently work.
 
omg I could totally watch hulu and netflix on my phone via my pc??!!

I'd imagine the lag would be significant, even if it did work.

It works beautifully, especially when you are on a WiFi connection BUT they do not have sound support yet. They have said it's coming, but it's been months since I've seen that promised. I've been looking forward to that more than Flash 10.1...

Wow, that is beyond cool then. :icon_eek:
