Yeah, but don't forget the touchpad on the controller!  And I guess
using a Bluetooth mouse could also be supported.

Right.  This matches my own impression.  And maybe add some screen to
explain how to get games into the box, like SuperGNES has.

I guess I'll take a look at it once I finish up Freedroid then.
I'll use my own dev account for now, but when/if it gets ready for
general consumption I guess we should create a shared account
somehow...

Thanks.  Will do.
