Not sure of the feasibility but an app that would allow the clipboard to appear in real time on a tablet to have that real clipboard feeling :)

We use cordless keyboards and mice with the game. It would be a virtualization of the clipboard as a second touchpad input device. I guess you would have to run a second app on the tablet or your smart phone using your home WiFi or even blue tooth. And then the next step would be the text buffer and VOX so you can share your bathroom experience in real time over VOX, or troll ch200 while watching your ESPN games. Heck you could leave your game running and access VOX, text, and the clipboard from the road through your home router with lag.

And then, and then, port AH to your tablet and use 2-axis tipping of the tablet to fly the planes while running around in your back yard making airplane noises. And, and, a direction view hot spot to cycle through your views with a single finger tip. And, and a vertical slider to control throttle....and, and.......

At some point Aces High gets banned world wide because of all the cases of grown men being rescued from their bathrooms due to their legs quit working from sitting too long on the throne playing a game. Now that would be one funny class action suit. Sadder still are all the adults playing solitaire on the throne with their legs going numb.

This idea has legs.......... :O

This is like the old joke that voters are harsher to their beer brewer if he has an outage, than their politicians after raising their taxes. Death and taxes are certain but, fun and sex is only now.

Lol I just wanted the map and clip oars function so I did not obscure my view while flying, sometimes a quick glance is all I need but your right there are many possibilities. I also feel it appeals to a new crowd, leave the old method for those that do not like it.

Technology is a can of chipmunks on caffeine you can't get back in the can once you convince someone to open it. They gots lots and lots of tiny legs and they use em. They runs up the trunk and down the trunk and over the log and under the log and around and around and and.......O.o.o.o.o.o.o.o.o.. :O

Don't say you ain't been warned.........
