Brilliant! You find something that adds to iPad’s cool credentials and there isn’t a news release to be found, just this teaser clip to make you yearn for an iPad.

It looks like app developers are really starting to ramp up what they can do with the iPad. A lot of apps I’ve played with allow little room for the iPad’s tilt sensors, apart from basic screen rotation, but it’s starting to trickle through as game developers have a go.

The developers at SMHK have created a basic, but very ambitious racing game using the iPhone’s motion sensor as a controller. Pad Racer look’s like a basic version of Mario Kart on the Wii, but from a bird’s eye view.

The game uses the iPhone’s Bluetooth or WiFi connection to connect to the iPad as a remote control, and from the screenshots provided, up to four people can play at once.

Of course, affording the kit is a different matter altogether…

And it looks like other developers are picking up too.

Like James Cameron had to wait until the right technology to make ‘Avatar,’ I reckon now it won’t be long until more pick this one up: having iPhone/iPad tie-ins, apps can offer additional value in the same way Fox bundle digital copies of films with their DVDs.
