Chatpad driver /(replacement) wireless 360 thumbpad mod for windows and PC

The chatpad is ergonomic, formfitting, backlit, tactile feedback and just alomst perfect. I got tired of waiting for microsoft to release drives to use chatpad on windows

The solution I came up with is

Its a video on using using a madcatz wirless thumbad as a replacement which is made for PS3.

Pros

Works on windows and xbox 360, great with flight simulators and rts, rpg, games like World of warcraft since it has F1-F-10 keys, usage time last longer than the chatpad, usb rechargeable from side, compatible with almost anything that has a USB connection. Pretty good for HTPCing or vehicles depending on setup, its only $29.99 if you can still find one.

Cons

Its not backlit and buttons could be a little more tactile.

I wrote to madcatz to make a backlit version for xbox360 but they claimed they don't have the license to do that. Let me know what you think and see if you can make it more streamlined!

You could be pro and pop open the 360 one, and switch some of the internal components with that PS3 one (if they even fit properly). Kinda cool, but kinda useless for a pc :P

You would be surprised at how fast and convenient this is! There are so many people on microsoft forum complaining about chatpad drivers for years, its just ridiculous!
