Some disappointing news, iPhone "Scrabble" fans.
Electronic Arts showed online multiplayer for "Scrabble" last week at a studio showcase for press, but...I discovered players must be connected to the same Wi-Fi point to play.
My dream of playing "Scrabble" against my girlfriend while we're each at work is dashed for now.
An EA representative told me the development libraries to make more robust multiplayer features are not yet available from Apple. When they are, however, EA will see what they can do.
The multiplayer that is there works just fine, though. If all you're looking for is local Wi-Fi, the free update, coming later this fall, will suit you just fine.
