WoW Playing on the iPhone

How would you like to play experience WoW on your iPhone?? Well you almost can! Using a third-party streaming program named Telekinesis, Mac users can enjoy WoW at a whopping 30fpsfph. OK, I'm never done being a dick. Here's how it works.

The Telekinesis software is actually pretty cool, sending periodic screengrabs from the Mac (that's actually running the game) to the iPhone via WiFi. Using the iPhone's slick user interface, users can zoom and pan these still images with ease. But problems happen when you actually want to play. While chatting sort of works, we doubt you'd want to "be that dwarf" in the group when raiding Karazhan, lest you be labeled both "AFK" and "ASS." I for one don't want to see the technology improved, as WoW in your pocket is the social equivalent to carrying a gun that randomly shoots you in the groin—and is just too dangerous for most of us.
