Cross-device computing experts at Splashtop scored a deal with Lenovo, which will preload Splashtop’s apps on its tablets and PCs. Starting in May, customers purchasing Lenovo PCs will get Splashtop Streamer out of box, while those who go for Lenovo ThinkPad tablets will get Splashtop Remote Desktop HD. This is turn will allow users to create a personal cloud and access files on a PC from their tablets while on the go.
Of course, Splashtop is also available for other (non-Lenovo) PCs and tablets; it’s just that you have to pay to use it. At the moment, Splashtop Remote Desktop HD retails for a special promotion price of $8.99 (regular price is $19.99) and Splashtop Remote Desktop for $4.99 (regular price – $9.99).
Personally I rely on other cloud-based services to access and move files between my computer and mobile devices, but I know few folks who can’t live without Splashtop. If you’re in that group and you also happen to love Lenovo products, now you have one more reason to cheer for your favorite computer brand…
