GameBone Pro is something that a lot of iPhone / iPod Touch users have thought about,a few products have come across this concept but non have seen the light of the day yet. This looks very promising as the company responsible for this device is dedicated to making this one of a kind controller for the iPhone giving the user all possible methods of connection in one device along with built in 3.5 headphone Jack & few other things. ! According the folks over at 22moo “This is one of the world’s first iPhone OS 3.0 compatible 8-way D-pad 6 buttons game controller to incorporate a 2000mAh battery, both Bluetooth and Apple’s 30-pin dock connector connectivity, built-in speaker and 3.5 audio headphone jack.”
The GameBone Pro features :
• Dual connectivity – Connect with Bluetooth wirelessly OR use the 30-pin dock connector cable
• 2000mAh Lithium-ion Battery for additional power for your iPod touch / iPhone*
• LED showing charging state and capacity
• 8-way D-Pad with 6 buttons
• Bluetooth button for pairing and status
• Built-in speakers, mic and 3.5 audio headphone jack
• “Made for iPod” and “Works for iPhone” certification**
Additional, the GameBone Pro will come with a iPod touch / iPhone stand supporting vertical and horizontal positions.
The above is an artist impression. Production model may differ slightly
* Additional power ONLY work when using 30-pin dock connector cable and not in Bluetooth mode.
** Pending Apple approvalLATEST UPDATE 23/6/09 : We are currently working on a clip-on rotating “I” stand that will allow the GameBone Pro to be attached to the iPhone / iPod touch while in use. Rendering and photo’s of the GameBone Pro will be uploaded over the next coming month as well as specifications such as size, weight and ratio etc. We are currently testing several finishes one that includes a grey rubber feel and appearance such as our Argo MPA video eyewear. FAQ’s and polls will be set up over the next coming weeks.
if this were to actually come out on store I would definitely buy one for me and one for my friend as a good birthday gift. honestly the comments some people made shouldn't bring you guys down and in my opinion this is way better than your newer gamebone which isn't even shaped like a bone in the first place. and the fact that this is bluetooth enabled makes me wannna go take it from you right now
