thx oren for this info.

There are currently two VirtualBrowsers apps which are vnc client to the external server. Both are 5$ only and are much cheaper solution than full featured AlwaysOnPC app. These all apps are made by the same team - Xform. As for now I would recommend one of the VirtualBrowsers (there are Chrome and Firefox versions) over AlwaysOnPC as they are simply cheaper. However AlwaysOnPC is a full desktop linux with a lot of useful software - so it has also some advantages.

These apps are also available for android devices.

The solution provided by MarkNZed is way better than anything I tried. It is a very good idea. Just need a few tweaks and it would be most useful way to play on kgs on any smartphone and tablet.

Also a good vnc client is needed. PocketCloud is the one which I can recommend to use.

There are instructions at http://www.hilolens.com/kgs.html to connect to a service for playing KGS on the iPad.

I don't have a plan for this but if there is enough demand we can make it permanent. The server is running on the Amazon cloud so it is very easy to increase the number of users it can support.

Please let me know if it is working (or not) for you.

Cheers,
Mark

(EDIT/OffTopic: i uploaded the screenshot from my ipad and it seems that it is displayed extremly big size... Sorry for that, maybe you can tell me a nice way to let it get displayed smaller size?)

I tryied the virtualpc sollution but it did not work, i gave up after 30 minutes... maybe there is a way to update the java with in the virtual machine... i tried this several times but could not do it.
