Errr... that would be pointless wouldn't it?

One of the advantages of the BT remote is controling Powerpoint and to do that effectively without looking at the phone and distracting the audience, one relies on the tactile feedback of the buttons. Touchscreen wouldn't provide enough improvement to warrant the cost of changing the App IMO.

I see your point, but having an UIQ (or at least Java) BT remote application would be nice anyway. I had it in my K750 and K800 and occasionally I miss it on my P1...

that's something i really miss on the UIQ devices...I used to love the fact that i could control my laptop...especially while watchin a movie while lying down on da bed...

Just curious, how come there's no HID profile for UIQ devices? can anyone shed some light on this?
