Yes, we at VMworldTV try to hunt down all the good stuff that is going on here at VMworld. Including this exclusive cool new iPad App to manage your entire vSphere environment. So 'soon' you can use your iPad besides your win32 vSphere client to manage your servers, including possible features like vmotion and SRM interaction. How cool is that!!
Why losing time with this toy at all?!
Where is the LINUX CLIENT?! Now, not even webaccess is available for Linux users!

@mothyent They mentioned an Android View application at the keynote.

@LostSteak I noticed that as well. Which doesn't make sense. ESX 4.1 was supposed to be the last ESX version, hence 5.0 should be ESXi...

horrible interface if you had to manage hundreds/thousands of vm's. the os "cards" should be scalable so you could see things in a detailed list rather than a huge card per os. seems like a nice app for an admin who doesn't manage many vm's and wants to brag what his ipad can do or not do...

Cool they want IT admin's to be able to administer on any device they use.
Really looking forward to that Linux client we where promised w. ESX 3, 3.5 and finally, now its really coming, with vSphere (4.0).
Of course the iPad's bee out about 6 months, so it's only natural to make a complete rewrite for this toy instead..... sshesssh

It interesting to see that at 1:30 when he is demoing the app that "VMware ESX Server Version 5" is listed. I wonder if this is a slip up or if it is a sign of things to come in the near future.

Very cool. Looking forward to purchasing this app as soon as it comes out.
Android users - I'm sure that there will be an app for you in the near future once there are android devices out there. Porting apps from iOS to Android is relatively easy - but obviously the market dominance of the iPad would have prompted VMWare to come out with this version first.
I don't need an OS/X version if I have an iPad version. The iPad is going to take over a LOT of my regular management duties....

Cool, a client for Apple's iOS. How 'bout a client for OS X?
