Give the iPhone a Bone – Chew This One Over [Gamebone Pro]
So – it sounds like the Apple iPhone and iPod Touch will be getting “third party game accessoriesâ€.
If you didn’t believe what heard then you’re probably not going to believe what you’re seeing.
Yup – it’s the GameBone Pro controller, which aims to bring six buttons and an 8-way direction pad to your Apple handset and it’s thanks to Aussie iPhone developer, 22moo that we have it.
This is no dog-chew toy by the way!!
The GameBone packs dual connectivity, allowing you to use either wireless Bluetooth or the iPhone dock connector.
Instead of leeching off the not-so-great iBattery the bone has a rechargeable Lithium-Ion battery on board, which will support your iPhone battery using the GameBone Pro’s own juice.
The GameBone Pro is also rocking an integrated mic and speakers, plus a 3.5mm headphone jack – it will even come with a support stand for your handset.
22Moo are actually taking suggestions for how the controller should be priced.
So what would you be prepared to pay for a bone?
