I wonder why that blue tooth clip-on joypad never caught on. That would solve every emulator issue ever on every phone.
The Zeemote is alright, only has four buttons though. It does have a nice analog controller.

I also have a gamegripper, and it's absolutely necessary for emulators. Your phone has to have a keyboard first, so, no go for iphone.

I should get one of those. My phone is one of the few (only?) that I think could have that attached when opened or closed so it might even be ok to throw in my pocket.
It's just a rubbery snap on attachment, but it really does work perfectly. Only $12 bucks too. What kind of phone you got?
Backflip. Not great for emulators, but I overeclocked it and it's solid for 8 and 16-bit stuff.
Engadget has a try at the new phone.

Still not officially announced, but now there is a commercial that has been leaked:
