The real question is why is there an open telnet port without any kind of password protection sitting open there on my network? Seems to me they should have put in an SSH port instead.

If you have a router, it should protect the port

Plenty of folks who are not computer savvy have a dsl modem and a computer, and only use the windows or Mac built in firewall. The assumption they make for a hardware device they install on their network would be the same assumption they make for buying a toaster - total trust!

There should be some security on this port, even if it is only plain text password.

My toaster catches on fire if I don't keep an eye on it while it's toasting... but I don't suppose that helps your argument at all 😉

That's your own fault for buying an open source toaster. If you bought your toaster from Apple and bread from the app store you would have perfect toast everytime 🙂

I once submitted my bread to the app store but apple told me they aready make bread so I guess you get only one choice.

Unfortunately, all the app store bread smells like farts now, and makes weird fart noises when you eat it. Very unappetizing.

That's because your eating it wrong.

I've completely updated the backend to the new ECP API. Link on first post.

Tried it, works on my iphone. There probably needs to be some setting to make the screen non-stretchable, as it is very easy to accidentally zoom in or scroll when you don't want to. I'm pretty sure this is possible as some websites won't zoom in even if I want them to, and others will.

It doesn't zoom on my my iphone 2g OS 3.1.2, and could you test the keyboard part, I think I have a bug where it wont backpsace the last letter

[jbrave]

Zooms on my 3gs os 4.0 annoying.

Wish: smaller arrows so the whole thing fits on the screen and doesn't scroll.

Yes, there is a minor bug with the keyboard. may have something to do with the autocorrect putting in chars that you didn't type. Sometimes an extra letter will show up that won't go away unless you use the arrows to go to "clear"

also, keyboard won't send space character! if I type abc bbc on the roku screen I get abcbbc

Here is some info on disabling the zoom:
