Adobe AIR 2.0 adds support for UDP
One of the things I’ve always wanted to see in Flash has been support for UDP sockets. As anyone whose tried to write a real-time networked game knows, TCP/IP is just too slow for the sorts of fast-twitch reactions used for first-person shooters, or anything real-time at all.
Apparently, Adobe AIR 2.0 has now added support for UDP, and this post by Jeff Winder shows how he’s added accelerometer support to RemoteDroid, and is using it to control an Adobe AIR application. Check out the video below:

The best words to describe this app is only,”Fantastic”! I have a Motorola Cliq it connected to my PC and the rest is history. Thanks!

Works great.
Could you add voice connection to the PC? This would allow me when teaching to move away from my laptop, and work the screen, speaking to the class through the phone microphone and laptop speakers.
This would also be a good wireless microphone and karaoke setup- laptop connected to home audio system and TV.
Thanks,
Allen
