WHS Mobile has been updated to v1.5 and is now available from Apple’s iTunes Store. WHS Mobile allows you to configure and manage your home server remotely via a Windows Mobile device or an iPhone. Additionally, you can use the add-in to stream MP3s to an iPhone, and WMA tracks to a Windows Mobile device.

    Just so that everyone is clear. I am from Australia and this app was available in Australia but Brent has taken it down from the itunes store to get a few problems sorted out. Therefore right now it is not available anywhere.

    Terry,

    There's a lot of tech support happening through the comments on Brent's site. He has pulled the app from general availability due to several issues that did not crop up in any of his testing environments. I see that Stephen L. has made a similar comment above. This may be worthy of an update to your post, so your readers don't go rushing to the iTunes app store (like I did) and wonder why they can't download Brent's app!

      It should. The jailbroken version worked just fine on mine.
