So, last time I wrote about Air Mouse Pro I was really negative about it.
Since then, I stopped trying to use it as a regular mouse and started using it as a remote for my iMac to surf and watch movies and TV shows. My wife and I both love the app and use it daily. I was very wrong in my first impression and attempted use of this application.
If you have an iPhone or iPod Touch and you need across the room access to a windows or mac computer. This is the way to go.
