Has anyone any thoughts on Wyse PocketCloud vs Logmein? I already own logmein and it seems more comprehensive but I have just noticed Wyse is on over and wondered if it actual offered anything better? The mouse control does look pretty cool in it but not sure its worth the price just for that!

I learned the hard way, starting with Wyse PC and ended up with LogMeIn.
I saw that Wyse was $10 cheaper and decided to give it a shot.
While many people go it to work, I could not. You need to get real technical,
like getting your PCs public IP, make sure port 89 is open, etc. I never got it
to work with my Verizon DSL setup after a good 10-15 hours of effort.
Then I went to LogMeIn, installed on iPhone, installed on home PC and Laptop
and worked with only a couple mins. of effort.

Since I never got Wyse to work, I guess I cannot really answer your question.
I recommend LogMeIn mostly because their integration method is much more simple.
