Parallels Desktop 6 for Mac Mobile App brings Windows to iPod touch, iPhone, iPad

Parallels is showing a new complementary Parallels Mobile app for the iPad, iPhone and iPod Touch. The app and service allows users of Parallels Desktop 6 for Mac and Parallels Desktop 6 Switch to Mac Edition, which launch today at retail stores worldwide, to use their iPad, iPhone and iPod Touch to access and utilize Windows applications running on a Mac from any network, from anywhere, at any time.

The Parallels Mobile app, a client and a service built upon the MyParallels services platform, is complementary with either edition of Parallels Desktop 6 and can be downloaded from the iTunes App Store.

With Parallels' new mobile app and MyParallels service, people can freely perform tasks that have been unavailable or limiting to iPad users such as printing, viewing Flash-based websites and full use of productivity applications like Outlook.

"With the popularity of mobile devices skyrocketing, our customers overwhelmingly desire the ability to do more from anywhere without the restrictions that usually come from working remotely," said Serguei Beloussov, Chairman and CEO, Parallels. "With our new Parallels Mobile app and MyParallels service, we make it possible for Parallels Desktop 6 customers to access and utilize their Windows apps wherever they are."

With more than 80 new and enhanced features, Parallels Desktop 6 delivers advances in mobility, productivity, performance and graphics.

"The Parallels Mobile app and MyParallels service is a great example of what DEMO is all about. It's an exciting innovation that changes peoples' expectations about what you can do with technology," said Matt Marshall, executive producer of DEMO. "We're thrilled that we got to see it live here first."
