Extravagant Word Game
 
Brought new life to my tablets after one had been mounted to the wall as an alarm clock and the other a sleep analyzer.

3 Days of programming resulted in this:

Indeed, the infamous word game found on the iPad with 4 iTouches.... this time more expensive with a Tablet PC and 4 wifi capable devices.

Sources to be released if requested.

So, um, what exactly did you program? :)

My guess is he programmed scrabble - but using the n900's as the player letter holders.

Which I should add is pretty cool.

Yeah, the whole thing is hosted on the tablet PC and the tablets are used as the racks through the webbrowser.

Re: Extravagant Word Game
 
So do this mean you made a web page for playing Scrabble?

That would mean it would work for older tablets as well, yes?

Please dish out more to us on what you've done here Firebird.

This looks really sweet! :)

Well it's exactly like this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VdUznE15L30 . Except instead of an app for the racks, all you need is a web browser. The tablet PC is running the board, the code, and everything else. (GUI is written in SDL).

So Wilson, this can only be used with an iPad and two N900s, is that it?
