An alpha application for Nokia’s N900 allows the handset to operate as a mouse, keyboard, gamepad, media remote, or PlayStation 3 controller via Bluetooth. As you can see, after a relatively painless pairing process, BlueMaemo enables the N900 to operate as a directional pad. While I’m not sure how comfortable playing a proper game on there would be, the sheer versatility can’t be argued with. Microsoft, take notes. You can find more info about the app here and download links over here.

In exploring RIM’s platform, he has learned what enterprises are looking for in mobility as well as what makes the innocuous BlackBerry so appealing to them. Recently Simon’s been covering RIM’s gradual move into an already-crowded consumer market, and the impact of burgeoning challengers, such as the iPhone, as well as long-time leaders, like Nokia, on BlackBerry’s advancement. With plenty of content under his belt, Simon will be branching off a bit to see what other smartphone manufacturers are working on while still using BlackBerry as a barometer.
