RDP Client for Mobiles

I have been looking for a good (and cheap) RDP client for my Android phone. I was about to pay $25 for Xtralogic's software when I saw the one from Jump Desktop for only $0.99. Having tested both, I find the Jump Desktop one better than the much more expensive one. Jump Desktop's price for Apple is $14.99. Better grab Jump Desktop for your Android before the price goes up.

I haven't tried it myself, but I think the host contacts "Google's servers" (according to the FAQ), your client contacts Google, and Google makes the connection. Neat if it works. It has two "cursors", making use on a small phone
