Are there games that support the physical keyboard?

There's an app coming out (out already maybe?) for jailbroken iOS that maps bluetooth controller input to touch regions on the screen.
Basically it takes input from the controller and passes it as if someone had touched the appropriate control area.
Not sure if something similar is doable within the Android system.
Trying to find where I saw this recently, will provide a link to clarify as soon as I do.
E: BAM!

Something like that would solve the issue in question.

This would be cool for emulators. Sometimes its hard to play games with onscreen buttons on emulators for me at least.
Personally, I've found that the Desire Z keyboard isn't ideal for playing emulated games. Better than touch screen for sure, but not ideal.
Bluez-ime + a wiimote is my preferred choice.
Ozzy's Odessey is controllable with the hardware keyboard. I found the game very enjoyable

Thought of developing something similar hundred times, but there were problems (can't remember which exactly..
Nice to know that if it has been done, it's possible to do it!
You can use your physical keyboard with emulators. I use it for my snes.

Sonic the Hedgehog 1 uses WASD and some odd key for jump (I forget which) on my Desire Z. Not really tried many other as I'm not really a gamer.

??? It's like a normal keyboard? what's the problem?

What does that have to do with the statement "It's just that the keyboard layout isn't parallel like normal keyboards"?
