BGP100 Bluetooth GamePad for PocketPCs and smartphones

One would be hard-pressed to describe the design of this device as sleek, but it should get the job done to turn your smartphone or PDA into a more conveniently controlled handheld gaming system. The BGP100 from Chainpus Technology Co. works with Bluetooth smartphones or PocketPCs (no wires may offset slightly the fact that you'd have an extra gadget to carry around) to provide full gaming controls. The device supports Symbian OS and Windows CE devices and sports a built-in belt clip. No word on pricing or availability yet, though.

I would be ashamed to be seen with this - how embarrassing! I'd rather have a Gizmondo lol!

Do you know of any two-handed (meaning two parted or twained) controllers for gaming consoles? I've been looking for a gadget to use while I'm on the treadmill. It's too hard to run/walk with a controller tying your hands together. Wireless would help too.

it looks extremely uncompfortable with the buttons so far down.

Despite it's looks, I bet this product will sell like hotcakes. PDA users have been waiting for a device like this for some time. There are already dozens of people waiting to place an order for these, on the PPC forums that I visit.
