First of all I must say that it's a great game. Never though it was possible to make such a game playable for mobile devices.

My question: I've been looking at the trial version so far and I'm about to purchace it. But does anybody know if it is possible to do a multiplayer game (2 player min.) over a bluetooth connection? :idea: That would be great!

I believe that is something they going to be working on :). Yeah, I think it would be really cool, too.

Yes, multiplayer is in the works. It will be released sometime late this year.

And of course PocketPC devices should be able to play against Palm devices over bluetooth...

As for multiplayer modes, it'd probably be best to have IR (if possible to do it real time), bluetooth, and modem multiplayer.

Will multiplayer support bluetooth connections over the Internet via BT PC/phone or will it only work for local BT connections? Many Zodiac users are concerned they will not run into other Zodiac owners for a while. It would be great to play others over the Internet.
