I have not tried it yet, but will soon, since fms and flandry have updated their fine emulator projects

Need to order one first, though.... I already have Wii motes- same thing?

Zeemote is not the same. It is a bluetooth device made for use with cell phones. Just look Zeemote up on Google. It looks nice enough but I dont know if I would want to play games with one hand or not.

Been looking at it for a while ( forums and such) and well sort of mixed reactions. In most cases you still need to use the phone screen / keyboard for 40-60 % of functions ( certain keys or aiming and shooting etc , game dependant) So people seem to be leaning more towards the Wiimote...

does anyone know of other controllers that work?

Thumb control of analogue joystick is very nice, and the front buttons are easy to press. Very usable as a mouse replacement, or for presentations. - just need to hack our devices' X11 server to accept this for that purpose.

The other two buttons are poorly placed and not usable for any application where you need to hit them frequently. The natural position for 2nd and 3rd finger has no buttons (see pic).



Conclusion: Not usable for games requiring > 2 buttons.

Could be handy for Quake?

Use the Zeemote for aiming, item change and shooting, but use the KB for movement and jumping?

Who am I kidding? Still need three hands

What about Bluetooth GamePad?

The only problem: it's designed for portrait-devices.
