      Why does the iPad get all the cool stuff?

      No reason why it shouldn't work with the iPhone and iPod touch as well, as long as the virtual controls are big enough on those screens.

      I don't think they are as big. It look slike that joystick would amost take up like a freaking 1/6th of a touch/iPhone screen hahahah

      I did a rough estimate based on the hand size in the video, and thought it would work on my game TiltStorm, but it has a larger than average virtual joystick due to it being the only control.

      Flings, they were called! could probably fit one on an iPhone/iPod screen, I think 2 would take up too much space though :(

      a lot of love at this years electronics show in Vegas.. CES..

      lot of cool things in the pipe line.. and a ton of tablets to compete with the ipad.. should be interesting to see how this all unfolds over the year.

      cheers.
