Fooling around with Splashtop Remote Desktop on my wife's android phone to get an idea of what Win8 is like via touch controls, as I'm interested in getting a Microsoft Surface Pro. A little discouraged, but maybe I'm doing it wrong? I was using "Win8 Touch Mode" as the control type.
1. Using the modern IE app swiping-in from the left and right worked to switch between apps and pull-out the Charms bar respectively. But trying to drag an app down from the top to close it did not work at all. Nor did swiping up from the bottom 'or' long pressing with one finger to initiate the right mouse button menu to bring up the URL bar and the tabs menu.
