I'm looking for a PoE zero client that will work with VMWare View (PCoIP). I was shown an all-in-one computer that operates on PoE power at http://shop.skinnybytes.com/185-PoE-Computer-AIO-Elite-PoE-185.htm. It looks great, but they're not very well known as far as I can tell. Has anyone had any experience with this company? I'd also be grateful for any other recommendations for all-in-one zero-clients or computers that will run on PoE.

Actually, the SkinnyBytes PoE-185 does run completely off of PoE power, or you can use the included AC adapter. The AC adapter is rated for a maximum of 19V/3.42A (60W), which is overkill for this unit which only consumes under 40 watts. This particular model sips just a bit too much power to receive power over typical 802.3at (30W), which is the reason for the PoE+ supply. It can easily be powered over CAT5e/CAT6 at a distance of up-to 100m.
The slightly smaller 15.6" AIO is 802.3at compliant and consumes under 30W of power.
Hope this helps!
Cisco has announced two VXC (virtualization experience client) devices supporting VMware View (PCoIP). Check out video demos of VXC 2100 and VXC 2200 http://www.cisco.com/en/US/products/ps11295/Products_Sub_Category_Home.html
