Hey Ralf - great work. Any plans on contributing the bluetooth hid (or spp?) profile work to the ibluetooth.com iphone bluetooth stack project? Also, have you connected any vr glasses to the iphone yet, such as the cheap(er) ones from Vuzix? The new "wrap" vuzix model shows a "6dof" add-on as a feature - the bt hid profile could provide a way to get this gyroscope+accelerometer info back into the iphone (ala wiimote + glovepie) allowing for a wearable computer with a head-tracking HUD, no? @Collin - G1 has no video out that I know of, and I’m pretty sure the bluetooth hid support is only just barely there in cupcake (android needs to catch up here).

I used an N810 and have a G1 as well. If they provide the functionality and necessary interfaces - it's just fine. @Glen - for this test I used ScreenSplitr - http://www.plutinosoft.com/blog/projects/screensplitr @Collin - I’m not restricted to the iPhone.

Its been a while since I tried, but I could only ever get video on the video-out channel. How did you get the iPhone to do video-out for non-video content?
