My idea on a bluetooth Gamepad...[x50v]

07-14-05, 09:51 PM

I know there is a bluetooth gamepad around... but I dont want it to be portable..I will explain.
As long as we can attach the X50v to a VGA screen. I simply want a Playstation or Xbox kind of gamepad with bluetooth.And play in a big screen...Also I would like to use it on trips so it should have some kind of stanfdthat will hold it to the Gamepad (with a screw?) and let the Axim turn on portrait or landscape mode.
I dont know if next Xbox or Playstation plan on introducing bluetooth.But it would be great to use the same Gamepad.
I dont like the portable compact Bluetooth gamepad because of the ergonomics.
I think a brand like ThinkOutside (Bluetooth keyboard and bluetooth mouse) could make it.
I think the combination of this Gamepad and VGA Screen (and the emulators around) would be great.
Any suggestions?Any ideas?

Xbox Bluetooth Controller (I think there may be more than one):

Do we need drivers for Pocket-pc to use this? Or will it just connect like my cell phone?

the new xbox 360 (november) and playstation 3 (mid next year) both are rumoured to use Bluetooth...maybe some time of hack or driver will be made so you can use them on other devices

actually the 360 is supposed to use a "custom" wireless technology similar to other wireless controllers. The PS3 should use BT though.
