remotedroid Control Your Computer With Your Phone G1

RemoteDroid lets you turn your phone into a wireless keyboard and mouse with touchpad, using your own wireless network. It’s a free application for phones running Google’s Android operating system, such as the T-Mobile G1.

Key features include:

  • User-selectable mouse control — use either the phone’s trackball or the onscreen touchpad
  • Two onscreen mouse buttons, with right-click/control-click functionality
  • Use in either portrait or landscape mode
  • Works with any WiFi network — no Bluetooth hardware or adapters required
  • Compatible with Mac, Windows and Linux operating systems

RemoteDroid consists of two parts: the phone application you can download from the Google Marketplace, and a companion server application for your computer that you can download from this site.

Watch the demo above to see how it works, or download the server application for your computer.
