Default Jaadu VNC $24.99 > $19.99

Jaadu VNC developed by Jahanzeb Sherwani just got 20% knocked off it.

This brings it down from £14.99 to £11.99!

When it dropped to $5.00 on September 17th 2008 in the US , as you can probably imagine,
users snapped it up pretty quickly.

I bought it at full price, £14.99 and have never looked back.

For people new to VNC, This app allows you to remotely access and view your PC/Mac,
over Wifi, 3G or Edge, anytime, anywhere.

Link for Jaadu VNC

I think this looks awesome. I don't have a real use for it, but I might get it because of how cool it is :P

[Edit] Oh, looks like you had the link, I just didn't see it at first.

Um, you made a little mistake, it's $19.99, not $17.99.
And for the first time, Istop is wrong...
That was their previous sale.
Oh and somehow I know when the sale ends.
December 28th is the end.

I bought it when it was $5. It was great until the new update came out and ruined everything. Now it always displays a black screen instead of my monitor. Stupid update!

Do you have a mac? If you do just go through your time machine backups and find the original version.

I wasn't wrong. The sale lasted 12 hours for $5 back on September 17th.

Yes, but R-fly's talking about the current sale... Were you talking about the first one?

Mocha VNC is similar and works great and is only $6.

You can use your PC just as if you were sitting in front of it. I've emailed myself a few files before.

I use the lite version since I don't really need it, but it's fun to start playing an MP3 suddenly and freak out my wife while I'm at work :P

I'm on Tiger so there's no Time Machine yet, but I fortunately find it on my backup.

THANKS!!
