My main goal was to use between my Ipod Touch and my PC, which it did accomplish. The biggest issue I had was a major drain on my connection to other computers. I have cable 12mbps service, not slow by any means and did not effect wired connection so much, however, the other two systems would literally get down to one bar when I ran Tonido and it was very choppy to use.
It also stated you don't need an internet connection to use it BUT I could not remote in to my pc unless I had my internet going, firewall off, etc... so not sure what the issue was there. I tried TightVNC and TeamViewer both which did not behave like this, nor did Splashtop.
That said, it also leaves a hidden desktop file when uninstalled so those who get rid of Tonido, may want to look to the desktop for this although, I didn't find anything harmful or strange about it, just stating it's there.
All in all it worked ok, the interface was good, easy to set up and use but I'll stay with others for now as my experience with it over wireless was less than decent. Would still recommend it to others to try.
