Does this only work for browsers? How about the iMac itself, or Windows? If that works I can throw my keyboard and mouse away.

Also I have a question - how does the iPhone communicate with the browser? Is it through 3G/4G network to a web server which in turn talks to the client - being your browser? If so, this delay is a significant problem. If there's a way to communicate directly between the browser and iPhone thru wifi this would make you millions and millions of $$$$$

As always, fascinating stuff from Jeff, my great project teammate from Berkeley!

HTML5 browsers only. Mainly targets smart TV market in the future. It works with 3G/4G and wifi. Hey, Geoffrey, interested in making some cool HTML5 apps together?

[geoffrey1211]

yes interested as always, but this yr I'm totally swamped with house search, exam, and keeping my job. When i'm as good a developer as you, maybe i can free up some time... ask my frd Ken Wu! He's constantly motivated about technology

oh i mean if you could manufacture a wifi hardware component for a PC/Mac, then your iPhone signal wouldn't need to go around the world before it comes back to the browser

well - the problem with doing this through WiFi would be that the setup would be so much harder because of all the various wireless router settings, firewalls etc.

exactly. Not all the web application needs <100ms roundtrip anyway.
