Mobile Air Mouse has been the app I’ve used most often since getting my iPhone 3G two years ago. The Mobile Air Mouse works by turning your touchscreen device (ipod touch, iphone, iPad) into a keyboard/mouse combo for your PC or Mac. A small server program running on your computers will allow your device to function both as a traditional mouse or as a gyroscopic mouse. The gyroscope version doesn’t work as well as the trackpad does but this app does an incredible job of replacing a standard keyboard and mouse for your computer connected to the television.
