iControlPad.com brings to you an amazing external gaming pad for the iPhone. Having a external game pad gives you a clear screen and saves the irritation of having your fingers (and fingerprints) on the display while playing. (Video Downstairs)

The developers of this Pad would be sharing source code and SDK with game developers to ensure wide compatibility. If AppStore developers wish, they can make their apps / games compatible with the iControlPad.

It features -

  • A D-pad for navigation
  • Action Keys (ABXY)
  • A start button
  • Power LED
  • Select key

The demo video below shows the same working live on a iPhone 1st Gen. It is also expected to work with iPhone 3G or iPod Touch we might have to wait a little before it makes it to the retail chain. iControlPad is looking for distributors as well, so if you are interested in selling these – contact them!

Yeah, this is primarily targeted at Jailbroken devices …

but option for AppStore guyz to adopt it. Hope it comes to the masses.
