I live in Australia, but have an US account. I've downloaded and registered, but it says my Internet connection is too slow?! It is the fastest wireless connection I have available to me at 24000kbps what speed are they looking for?

Same here, ive been able to log in probably 3 times. Try cloudon it's a lot faster

I just made a US account and downloaded it and I'm quite impressed with it, although I find typing harder because the keyboard seems squashed together compared to apples. It would be perfect if you were using a Bluetooth keyboard.

Try setting up an American iTunes store account - the app is available there. This goes for anyone in the world.

ok thanks I'll see how that goes

I downloaded and liked it. Seriously its like a pc. But only problem if the app is for obviously an iPad, but I don't like not being able to print straight from the app on my iPad. I have a wireless printer so that's not the problem but I chatted with a customer service guy and he said it isn't possible YET. But doesn't know if it ever will since they are two different operating systems. I'm into using my iPad as my main computer. Don't want to have to go on my pc to download then either print or email. I hope they change that, just to email or/and print from app! But other than that Awesome app!

The OnLive Desktop speed feels good... like the Office apps were running locally. Having all the normal laptop keys available on the virtual keyboard is also very good. It would be much better if you could upload docs from the iPad into the OnLive environment... that you cant do this a big deficiency in my opinion. I liked OnLive giving me the Windows 7 desktop look and feel, but would be better if it allowed me to save settings between sessions. I felt this OnLive desktop view is better than the CloudOn interface which felt a bit clunky. In both OnLive and CloudOn it was fantastic to have the full functionality of the Office apps compared with the cut down functionality available in current iPad Office-pretender apps.

To open a US account you will need a US iTunes card which you can purchase on the net and as you only need the number on it, this can be emailed to you. You will need to create another email address, I suggest a gmail account. I have heard others have used an Apple store location for the address. Have a look here for more info:-

You can actually open up an account without using any payment type, you just choose none when you get to billing details. I followed a tutorial on this thread I believe and I downloaded both onlive and cloudon with no problems
