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 simulatorsand rts, rpg, games like World of warcraft since it has F1-F10 keys,usage time lastlonger than the chatpad, usb rechargeable from side, compatible with almost anything thathas aUSB conncetion. 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!

Watch this video to see what is the end of graphic cards, say goodbye to nvidia and ATI. No more needing to update your hardware to run the latest game. AMEN!Hasta la vista to all claims of super enhanced graphics being done better. This is the indutry killer/evolver! If this proves true and we can get some artist and animators to show its true potential...then Its over like disco! Goodnight polygons and slow frame rates! Hello awesomeness! Hopefully we can make some money on the known companies to suffer the impact on theirstocksand gain on theaspect that they will belosing money. Tell me what you guys think? Killer or vanilla?

I can finally save my money for games instead of upgrading my hardware every 2 minutes! That puts everyone on the same playing field which means the only limit is how creative developers are!
