Title: Wireless USB
Post by: BobA on July 24, 2007, 06:10:27 pm

Looks like wireless USB products are going to become more plentiful.  Hope that brings the price down when there is more competition.  Could lead to alot more portable control panels.

I've been thinking of bagging a wireless gamepad for my desktop PC. Anyone try any of these?

I use a couple of wireless pads w/ my emulator set top box (which uses a PC).  They are great.  They are wireless, and connect via USB but they aren't wireless USB hehe.  I'm looking forward to being able to use some of the USB classic controllers I have while on the couch over wireless USB.

The ones I have are the logitech rumble pads.  I also use an xbox 360 wireless on the PC.
