Hey guys, I was just wondering if anybody knows about any new racing wheels for the PS3. I want to play dirt using a racing wheel. I am pretty sure they will release one soon before GT comes out but does anybody know when? I don't find any racing wheels in best buy for the PS3. The only one I find for the PS3 is on ebay, and I am skeptical a bit because it also suppose to work with the PC and PS2.

Also another question I had was the keyboard/mouse support for the UT3 version of the PS3. The only keyboard I see out there is the Logitech keyboard which has the mouse already built in, I don't want that to play a FPS game, I want a regular mouse and a keyboard. I am not sure the regular bluetooth mouse will work with the PS3, does anybody know? thanks

Any USB accessory that worked with PS2 will work with PS3 for the driving wheels.

For keyboards, you can sync bluetooth keyboards or you can use any USB keyboard (including the ones with the wireless dongles as well as wireless desktops) and mouse with the PS3.

What did you think the USB ports were for anyway? lol

I never tried synching any USB devices to the PS3, I am far away from home and just had that question on my mind. I tried connecting a blue tooth device to the PS3 one time without any luck. I just didn't know if the PS3 only supported certain kinds of devices. anyway, now I know that all USB devices work with the PS3, I will go out and buy a wireless one. thanks

No problem. I wasn't trying to come off as mean or anything and if I did I'm sorry. The only thing you want to be somewhat cautious of is to make sure the wireless device you get is plug-and-play (ie doesn't require a driver installation in order to work).
