LazyDroid Web Desktop is currently in beta and the developer is looking for feedback on bugs (there are currently javascript issues with using the app on IE9). The app features the following: SMS – Send SMS via the web interface Contacts – view and manage your contacts Call handler – call/answer/reject/silence calls with the speakerphone or headset on your phone Remote view – view the screen of your device and take a screenshot (requires root) Sensors – view the sensor values of your phone Clipboard – view and set the clipboard of your phone If your phone and computer are on the same Wi-Fi network, you can open up your web browser and send text messages, browse your phone’s filesystem, edit contacts, view your GPS location, and even receive calls.

Just install the LazyDroid server on your phone and start it up. It’ll give you an IP address from which you can access your phone. Just type that address into your web browser of choice, and you’ll get a Windows-like desktop with icons for SMS, Contacts, your Filesystem, your Camera, and other stuff. Just double-click on something to access that feature on your phone, without even picking it up off your desk. If your phone rings, you’ll get a notification on the LazyDroid desktop—which you can use to answer your call and then talk through your phone with a Bluetooth headset.

You can even check your phone’s GPS location. If you’re sick of using your phone’s tiny keyboard, this is the app to get for remote control. LazyDroid is currently in a beta state and can be downloaded from the Android Marketplace for free. If you want to use it via USB instead of Wi-Fi, you can download a Windows client for that too.
