Wifipad unveiled for iPhone and iPod Touch

We've just heard word of a pretty cool iPhone app that might appeal to the gamers among you. It's basically a virtual gamepad on your iPhone, which you can use to control your computer.

It's massively flexible - you can build your own button layouts and key bindings. That means that it'll work on any game - even those without gamepad support.

A companion application needs to be downloaded, which works on Windows and OS X, but it seems pretty easy to configure. Of course, you won't get the physical sensation of actually having pressed down a button, but it seems like a handy solution nonetheless. It's available from the App Store now.
