At GDC yesterday, I walked past a display showing the ‘Zeemote’. They had it working with a verity of phones (from the site: major manufacturers like Nokia, Sony Ericsson, LG, Motorola, and, Samsung). Missing of course? The iPhone! Why? Because it uses Bluetooth which the iPhone VERY poorly supports.
However, times.. they are a chang’in..
The iPhone 3.0 update is suppose to significantly improve Bluetooth compatibility. When I talked with the guys at Zeemote, they said they have already started looking into it.
What I expect to see very soon is iControlPad’s device gaining greater support. Here is the video if you have not seen it..
