VNC for the palm. Amazing, wonderful. Like having PCanywhere from my palmtop to both my work and home computers, via the palm. If I wanted to, I could play City of heroes remotely, from *$, if I wanted to, now. Insanity. I’ve already used it to logon and update virus defs on my company web server from home.
It’s about as multi-platform as can be… check out the home page. Ah, and the source is available. got to love GPL.

Paypal’s latest warning to me, from the website-
As part of PayPal’s proactive efforts to protect our customers, we are notifying you of important information that we received suggesting that your PayPal account may be a target for deceptive emails, otherwise known as “spoofing” or “phishing”. These emails are designed to appear as if they were sent from a trusted online company that you have done business with, such as PayPal.
PayPal has learned that third parties may have obtained limited transaction information from the PayPal site about one or more of your online purchases after obtaining passwords of several PayPal merchants. The information includes general transaction information such as your first and last name, mailing address, email address, and transaction details. These parties may seek to use this information to target you with a deceptive email appearing to come from PayPal or online merchants with whom you have done business.
It is important to note that your personal or financial information, including your PayPal password, and Social Security, driver’s license, credit card, and bank account numbers are not at risk. In order to protect your account, this information is always hidden and encrypted, and cannot be accessed by any merchant or third party. 
Since Newt dozes atop my computer in front of a pretty solidly-colored wall and the webcam has a wacky chroma-key feature…

Newt by ancient ruins!
