i loved the pad no 1 and 3 bec i dont need to handle the phone or trying to find a comfortable place to put it while playing i think one of these two pads need to come in box with a flagship device or any other similiar and comfortable gamepads jus like the xperia play and name it console phone so we can use the phone separetley or attach it to the gamepad it may sell more than the s3

Wish they would make better joysticks for these. I've tried the Nyko and Moga and I can't play any FPS games because the joysticks aren't smooth enough.

What game is that in the MOGA capture?

icontrol pad is obviously meant for a tv - mirroring use.
Some neat products here!
Does iDroid have a holder for the phone?

Too bad there was no mention of the Gameklip, since although it is not a controller itself, it allows you to clip on and use a PS3 controller with your phone... and honestly, the PS3 controller blows these out of the water. Well except maybe the iDroid, that looks like a good controller.
