Your phone as your mouse

Ah. It’s not the most simple mouse we’ve seen, but at least, it works ― according to the video. Such a trick relies on Bluetooth connection and standard Java code to turn cellphone selection buttons into mouse left and right selectors.

“Recently I saw an article on a USB Optical mouse that had been modded to include a Nokia Colour LCD Screen,” is said on the website. “This got me thinking, the screen was quite usefull but why go to all the effort of modding a mouse, why not use the whole Nokia?”

Is this the kind of projects that could popularize motion sensor in cellphone? Imagine that using the same Bluetooth system, you could wave your hand in the air to draw and write with your phone.
