Let's face it - the cell phone is not going to be your primary portable gaming device anytime soon, but that doesn't mean it can't offer a decent alternative to the DS and PSP, especially with the iPhone's graphical capability. What about other powerful handsets that could also prove to be viable gaming platforms, if only they had the proper controls? The BGP100 Bluetooth gamepad for phones aims to fill up this niche, supporting a fair number of smartphone platforms including Windows Mobile, PocketPC and Symbian UIQ. With a special twisting design, you can attach the BGP100 to a range of phones as long as they do not exceed 55mm in width. If your handset is unfortunately too large to accommodate the BGP100, you can use it as a standalone gamepad when folded up. Powered by a solitary AAA battery, you can get up to 3.5 hours of non-stop, thumb-bruising action. The BGP100 can be yours for $88 thereabouts.
