    You can't remote access the phone. Tell your friend to read the instructions.

    Guess you're wrong Steve1980 :P

    I access my phone via "Droid VNC Server" on a number of occasions, it's in the market! so you access it via your browser on a pc

    It's better when you're using wireless rather than 3g (it's a data hog!!) Just browse to the IP address it shows in the Android's screen and off you go!

    "Remote Desktop" allows you to access your phone via wifi from a PC. there are other apps too.
