Instead, it's more of a <em>SL</em>-by-proxy sort of situation, where commands being entered through the iPhone interface are transmitted to an actual <em>SL</em> session running somewhere. There is a slight lag to the proceedings, which any resident of <em>SL</em> will be well familiar with.<br /><br />Is this tech demo interesting in anything more than an academic way? If you could access <em>SL</em> through an iPhone remotely like this, would it be worth it? What if you could run <a href="http://massively.joystiq.com/categories/world-of-warcraft"><em>World of Warcraft</em></a> like this somehow -- would you?
