NullDc or Onlive for iOS?

RE: NullDc or Onlive for iOS?
I've pretty much been a fan of OnLive since day 1, and a member. I can confirm that Steve Perlman (the founder, and once head of OnLive), showed OnLive running on an iPad a long time ago. In fact, OnLive's portable app was probably made for iOS. But because OnLive lets you purchase games through their app, it breaks the rules of Apple's App Store policy. You can't buy stuff like that via an app. So it's basically been stuck in development hell ever since. You can however, download OnLive Desktop, and OnLive Viewer (watch other people play games) for iOS.

Since Perlman left OnLive, and the entire company filed for bankruptcy, OnLive 2.0 has formed. They have been teasing at new "major" stuff coming soon, with new technology and crap. We've been sitting around waiting.. waiting.. waiting.. and nothing has come yet.

Bottomline: I wouldn't sit and wait for OnLive to be ported to iOS. My guess, the entire service will be getting a big facelift in the coming months, possibly next year. So maybe then, OnLive will develop their new "stuff" whatever it may be.. for iOS.
