In fact this has ALL BEEN COVERED before, my techniques work on the iphone, its just slower and less customizable as a result. When I ask for direct comparisons with iphone users nobody actually tries the leg work though. So, good luck with that.

"If you have any sort of (X) you are (Y)" makes me point out who I am and what I do. I have an iPhone 4. I could not reproduce the problems others had unless I really cupped the phone. There were a flurry of articles using bandwidth and signal strength to evaluate this problem. I found one, you can look at this for info. http://www.anandtech.com/show/3794/t...one-4-review/2

Back when Shadow was doing tests on the Droid, I briefly tested it on the iPhone.
I believe the iPhone its self has just as much potential to play EQ as the Droid does. The thing to remember is that neither phone is actually processing the game data the way your PC does. Essentially all it is doing is streaming a live video feed from your desktop while tracking the mouse interaction and relaying it back to the PC. With this in mind, it seems the internet connection would be the real bottle neck. A good remote desktop app is also key. When I was doing my tests, I was using the LogMeIn app to control my desktop. At most, I was getting about 10 FPS within my network and less than 5 FPS outside. Color quality settings were set to low on the app, so it looked pretty crappy. These were base test results, and I never ended up having time to explore other avenues. Although my immediate results fell short of Shadow's excellent Droid performance, I do believe it is possible to tweak it up to a playable level on the iPhone. I plan to do some more tests once I find the time. | ||

Using PhoneMyPC thus far is not perfect but it is FAST (30-40fps at Full Quality over wifi, 10-25 over 3g). My eventual goal is a decent 50-60 FPS, resolution and UI designed to be native to droids, displayed and resized for full touch operations. Another thing to remember is some games respond better than others, EvE Online is FAR FAR faster for some reason than EQ is. I would love to see some videos also if you ever get the chance. EDIT: Any luck with clocking your Iphone4 to a true 1ghz? Its throttled down to save battery power but with the droid 1 we now have it running at 1.32GHz and while minor it DOES help smooth out frame rates and display speed for this kind of project. Even on my day-to-day standard overclock of 1.1 GHz I score 1390 on quadrant, putting me wellll ahead of the Droid x or even with the droid 2 and even higher then nexus one. A full 1.32 GHz overclock (when its stable) ramps upwards of 1900 on quadrant which makes it technically one of the fastest palm sized devices in the cell world, for the next upcomming year. Stability though? LOL....just dont try this at home unless you KNOW what your doing!
