Mobile Gadget News got their hands on the BGP100
GamePad, that Bluetooth-enabled, um, game pad dealie from Chainpus we mentioned a couple of weeks back. They like
it, mainly because it’s a big improvement over playing games with the crappy little joysticks found in a lot of
smartphones these days (we’re looking in your general direction, Audiovox SMT
5600), but it turns out there’s a very serious downside to the GamePad (well, besides the fact that it’s yet one
more thing you have to carry around): you have to reconfigure and set up the controls every single time you want to
play a game. Think about that. That means you can’t just pop in a game and start playing, even if you were just playing
it the day before because apparently there’s no way to save a controller profile for any specific game. Sounds like
something they could easily fix, but in the meantime, unless you feel like mapping controller buttons every time you
want to play Tetris on your cellie, it sounds like the GamePad will be of little use for you.
