iPodNN reports that Citrix employees were at last week’s Macworld Expo giving impromptu demos of the upcoming Citrix XenDesktop client for the iPhone. Citrix itself confirmed this by posting to its own blog several videos of a working prototype of the iPhone app.
First, Citrix posted a video of using the iPhone to launch PowerPoint, type some text, then copy that text and paste into a Word document. Here is that video. It is neat to see Microsoft Office applications being used on an iPhone, and a not-so-subtle jab at Apple for not yet having copy-and-paste on the iPhone.
Additionally, Citrix posted several videos of people at Macworld Expo talking about how impressed they are with the version of the Citrix iPhone app in development. Check out this set of videos and this additional set of videos.
Citrix says that there is “nothing to announce regarding release date … but we are making good progress.” (Citrix has previously said that the iPhone app will be released in the first half of this year.)
