Even though you probably still can't figure out what good the ability to connect your Bluetooth keyboard to your iPhone (http://www.engadget.com/2009/12/24/want-to-connect-your-iphone-and-bluetooth-keyboard-theres-a-j/) will do, the BTstack project is steaming ahead with this demo of a connected Magic Mouse (http://www.engadget.com/2009/10/29/apples-magic-mouse-now-shipping-seeks-mighty-revenge/) twirling its pointer all over Apple's handset. The driver code is still unreleased, but we get to see some nice lag-free interaction between the two devices, suggesting it shouldn't be too far away from public consumption. As if to answer your earlier quandary, the video also features a Celluon CL800BT virtual keyboard, which projects onto and responds to your touch of any flat surface. A gimmick most likely, but a fun journey into the dream of nomadic computing nonetheless. Check out all the action after the break.
