No love for Android? I bet apple gave M$ money to they could be only supported, not that I care anyway.

@ brickman
Hopefully it'll be on it's way soon ... it's not like Microsoft has some great love relationship with Apple

This might actually be useful for me. I've got an Xbox for a few Kinect games only (prefer gaming on my PC) but every time there's an Xbox update I have to dig out the controller which is always out of batteries. It's a real hassle so having this as an alternative control input should be handy.

No Android, no deal. I want to used my Cyanogenmod 9 Touchpad with this.

Interesting. Frankly any console 'should' allow any device to access and stream media. So I will assume additional device support i.e. Android is forthcoming.

So is this an iOS thing or an iPad thing? The title said iOS, but the article made it sound like it was iPad only.

here's hoping it'll come out for the xbox soon my 360 is basically a glorified netflix and hulu plus streamer nowadays. and i don't rmemebr to turn of fthe controller after hitting play and though i use rechargable batteries i'd rather just use my phone as a remote for the thing
