n8x0 as wireless mouse and keyboard
 
I'd like to use my n810 as a wireless HID for my PC (Windows 7). Bluemaemo works great, but hasn't been updated in a while, and I feel it could use some polishing. But I've also lost my bluetooth adapter, so what other options do we have?

Is there anything that could work like bluemaemo without needing Bluetooth? Maybe wifi?

You can always use a VNC client (pick your favourite).

Or use an RDP client (pyrdesktop).

I actually did try remote desktop. It looked very nice and was easy to use if I needed to access my comp from another room or at another location. But for whatever reason, Windows 7 (and any other maybe?) turns off my primary display and leaves the only view on my n810. To top it off, netflix doesn't work through remote desktop =/. VNC works nice from across the room as a mouse and keyboard, but it seems slow to respond. If I could ever quit goofin' around, I should just find my Bluetooth adapter and go back to bluemaemo :P
