Other than both being USB only and 32 buttons max,
how do they compare?

two different animals.

Tha A-pac is used for analog inputs as well as digital inputs.  The GP wiz 32 is all jsut digital inputs.

Yep,

Apples and oranges.

A-PAC is closer to Daveb's AKI than the GP-Wiz.

If you don't care about analog inputs, then:

GP-Wiz32 is cheaper - A LOT cheaper if you order one of the ECO versions.

GP-Wiz is seen as one directional (D-pad) plus 28 button gamepad. 

A-PAC is seen as two directional (D-pads) plus 12 buttons each gamepads with each gamepad having an additional 16 shifted buttons available.

AFAIK, GP-Wiz does not support shifted buttons, but I could be overlooking this.
