Or would that ruin your chances of getting it in the app store? I didn’t expect that, why not consider releasing it for jailbroken iPhones?

I mean, as great as it'd be to have the iPhone natively support Bluetooth HID, it doesn't sound like Apple has it planned for this update. Plus we'll have to wait until Summer before we find out! If you could help in any way, jailbroken or not, we'd be so grateful...we'll pay of course! Me too.

But there might be a way to make an app in which you can type text and then cut&paste into the clipboard, accessing the BT through the accessory API. Well that's just my thoughts on that, I'm not an expert on this of course. Thanks for considering it in any case!

A: We have nothing to announce." It would be great if you could show us how you did it though ;) It would be such a great laptop replacement then.
