The Bluetooth add-on will give iOS players a full-size, Xbox-like (http://www.engadget.com/2013/05/21/hands-on-xbox-one-impulse-triggers/) controller that should work in any title using the official gamepad API -- developers won't have to include proprietary code in their apps. ClamCase also promises ample play time through a built-in lithium-ion battery. The GameCase isn't expected to ship until late 2013 or early 2014, but there are plans to offer versions for all iPads and iPhones that run iOS 7. If you're interested, you can sign up for notifications from ClamCase at the source link.
