Thank you all for viewing, any comments are welcome.

too lazy to hit the slickstick site to discover it for yourdelf Snaaake old boy?
here, let me dave you a click or two, click one for instant answers http://www.slikstik.com/sscomp.htm  

looks very SLICK, sexy even,  but I'm concerned that it might feel more like a surgical instrument of some kind rather than a nice comfy plastic ball (or bat)... it just seems a little "cold" somehow.

Snaaake: for the URL impaired, it's $25, and it looks like they're selling complete joysticks with the new handles, as well (might be time for me to pick up an Optical joystick!)

I see they went with four different models instead of one "universal" design. Probably better that way, I suspect.

I did go to the site and clicked on product and only saw the panels and tornado spinner.

I came home really late and was half drunk. (which section did you dudes click )

$25 doesnt sound bad !

anyone ? (oscar)

I've got a set on the way (hopefully next week, right, Christian?) -- I'll post a review on my site once I've gotten them.

Christian,

Thanks for the compliments, but, egads, talk about laying it on a bit thick!  

Seriously, however, I'm looking forward to trying out the handles.

ditto on kev's reviews... I insist on more video w/narration (and some sort of witty song intro pun)!

Dancing! I want dancing!

[KevSteele]

Dancing...now there's an idea!

I'm not sure what I could do for a video of Joystick handles...Kodo Drummers perhaps?

"In this demonstration, I will crack this oversized walnut with just one flick of the joystick handle..."

I know you didn't really ask for review suggestions, but nevertheless, here are my ideas:

1) some type of weight and throw test
2) maybe a time-lapse series 10 min playing, 20 min playing, 30 min playing...etc... to emulate those sweaty hams we all get. a slickness test
3) lots of dancing is good - maybe to some zydeco?    (i'm picturing that Charlie Chaplin bit with the potatoes from The Gold Rush)

You could always use them as maracas! Just don't hit yourself in the temple...... you could DIE!
