ECER Technology's TiltCONTROL ($49) is a new way to interface with a PDA, be it a Pocket PC, Palm OS device or a Nokia N-GAGE smartphone.
By plugging the TiltCONTROL dongle on a supported handheld users can control any application or game by tilting their device from left to right or up and down. The company said you can use it to play games, scroll the pages of documents or web pages, draw, and flip the pages of an electronic book with the flick of a wrist.
For a limited time, ECER is offering its CONTROL-EMUL8R software for free when you buy TiltCONTROL. This application lets you do anything with TiltCONTROL that you can with a stylus or D-Pad. ECER also has software for the TiltCONTROL that allow users to measure and log the performance of a car or performance during exercise. It plans to release more custom applications in the future.
TiltCONTROL currently works on most iPAQ Pocket PCs and is slated to work with Palm M125, M130, M500, M505, M515, i705, Tungsten and Zire PDAs, CASIO devices, and Nokia's N-GAGE.
