Built-in session persistency allows users to reconnect to their remote desktops should the iPad get disconnected or turned off. ILiveX, which features an ultrathin data transfer protocol, can run over securely encrypted SSH tunnels.
That, according to StarNet, grants users access to Flash applications (native iPad apps won't support Flash), as well as the ability to multitask, copying and pasting among productivity apps. With the account, users have access to the Firefox browser and the OpenOffice productivity suite. StarNet is also billing the client as a tool for giving iPad users access to a Linux desktop, albeit a virtual one hosted by the company. The idea is to enable IT admins, engineers, and technicians to marshal the portability power of the iPad, especially those who are frequently on their feet while requiring access to data and applications. iLiveX is designed to enable users to transfer application sessions without interruption from their Windows, Mac, or Linux PCs to their iPads.

The client is aimed at organizations where users work with software such as Hummingbird Exceed, X-Win32, ReflectionX, or VNC in order to run server-hosted Unix and Linux apps on their PCs. StarNet, a 20-plus-year-old maker of X11 connectivity products, has unveiled an X11 client called iLiveX, designed to transform iPads into X terminals for mainframe-based Linux and Unix applications. Another player has joined the field of competitors striving to transform the Apple's arguably consumer-oriented iPad into a business tool.
