Great "fix". Like everyone else, it now just instantly crashes Total useless
Please fix for 3.1.x iOS!

The recent update apparently does not work with iOS 3.1.x. I have no desire to upgrage my 3GS to iOS 4.x due to reports of lag. Please put out another update that makes it work on older softeware too! iRdesktop is one of the reasons i bought an iPhone! Latest update (v1.0.3) still does not work with iOS 3.1.x. Oh well... I've just started using iRemoteDesktop by HanaMobile. It works the same but the free version only lets you save one host which is fine for my needs.
Love this app

This has been a great app and helped on a lot of occasions. Very fast even over 3G. Developer is quick to respond to feedback. For free can't beat it. Has new annoying ads but once connected, they are out of sight. Highly recommend.
Not bad

Annoying ads on the home page are acceptable for a free product, especially since they go away when your actually in the remote client. The setup doesn't automatically use the hostname as the title as on the other RDP apps I've used, and if you assume it does you end up with a blank line in your index. Once in the RDP session the host was responsive using 100s vs 1000s of colors. I liked being able to switch between multiple sessions, hadn't seen that on the other client apps I use. Will have to look for it now on them. A major problem with the app was that it didn't refresh the screen consistently. For example I applied security patches on a server and when I closed the window the screen appeared to refresh every other line, leaving a weird ghost image. After opening and closing a couple more windows the ghost images started stacking up. Like I said, this is a good application, but has some issues that I'm not willing to put up with. I prefer to use a paid app, iTap RDP at this time, but will definitely keep an eye on this one. Actually, I'll keep it installed and see what kind of and the frequency of updates it gets. I'm an IT professional and am currently piloting iPad deployments for our managers, and still think this one has some promising features, and is easy to use for computer illiterate managers ;)
Does the job

For a free version it does the job better than other free RDP apps. Used on iOS 4 with iPhone 4 Works well over 3G and great over Wi-Fi Looks really good on an iPad
Best free RDP app

Has not been updated in quite some time and crashes often on the menu. Also is lacking semi-special keys such as ESC. But what can I say? It works alright and gives you right-click for free.
