I have only been able to get this to work for all of 3-5 seconds, and then no server is found. I wish I could set the IP of the server system in the app.

Thomas, I am using Air Mouse to type this right now… on a Mac.

What pisses me off is the “convenient” lack of system requirements BEFORE I bought the app! I have a Mac and NOW find there is NO WAY it works with Macs and that the Mac-friendly app is “in the works”!!
How do I get a refund?!

this app would be great, if their site hosting the server file were not down because they reached their bandwidth limit. i just bought the app, and now i have no way to use it. Ballsacks. vinegary ballsacks. who’s ignoring their blackberry/iphone on friday night telling them their commerce site is out of bandwidth…? are the developers really on that tight of a budget? also, about the blue tooth thing, might also be impractical if you’re media center pc/mac is far removed fromyour viewing area. BT only has about a 30 foot range under ideal conditions.

I just got this on my mac, and made a “computer to computer network.”

its the same as Ad Hoc I guess… and can probably be done on windows.

This allowed it to be a standalone mouse/ wireless keyboard (kinda)/ trackpad, that did not need an internet connection!

All you do is make the network on your computer, then connect your ipod/ iphone to it using wifi!

Ray is correct; it would be awesome if you could use the bluetooth or USB connection, but apple does not allow it for official applications. Yes, that essentially sucks.

Chris, this would be a great option to this program, but Apple does not allow iPhone developer to write programs that access bluetooth, so currently WIFI is the only way iPhone programs can communicate with a computer.

Chris, I agree with you but the app isn’t that old. I would hope that in future versions this could work with Bluetooth. Bear in mind that Apple has limited the Bluetooth profiles / capabilities on the iPhone and iPod Touch so that solution might not be an option.

Am I alone on this?? I wonder why the author didn’t go that route..? WiFi at my house is gishmiggled right now, and not working right. If this used BT instead of WiFi, I could use, and would buy, this app immediately.

Hmm, there are other wireless apps, for Powerpoint for example, that make use of an ad hoc conection so I can’t see any reason why this can’t work the same way (assuming it currently doesn’t).

Thanks for sharing, Kev. I’ve really wanted a mouse app for my iPhone, but so far they’ve all been for Mac, not Windows. Can’t wait to give his a go when I get home.

I remember using something similar for Palm OS on my tapwave zodiac. It didn’t have gyroscopic functions of course but it was a great way to remote control my media center.

Please post your impressions Kevin. This interests me more than most of those other apps people are talking about.

Will this not support and AdHoc wifi network from a laptop?

That would make it work “standalone”.
