and thought I'd post my review of this for those wanting to know more about the USB sticks

I have no experience with the Stelladaptor, but after many hours of playing with the USB stick, I was very pleased...

I opted for the Stelladaptor so I could use paddles as well.

Do the paddles show up as a mouse?  Or are they simulated via joystick?

Good question.  The description does say the paddles AND steering control work via the Stelladaptor but it doesn't specify if they show as a mouse or not.

Good. I'm waiting for them to hit the warehouses in December and then be shipped out.

Pretty Sweet.  Has anyone tried one?

Or better yet has anyone used the extra 10 internal contact points for extra buttons as advertised?

I tried them, that's my review on the retroblast link following the post you quoted.. I didn't try the 10 internal contact points since I was mainly concerned with the playability and authenticity for 2600 games. The space that allows wiring up additional buttons looks fine. If you want additional info let me know.

I read the review.  Good stuff.    :applaud:  I liked the photos along with the article. 

 It made me more interested in buying it other than just going to http://www.legacyengineer.com/store.html

Is retro blast your web site?  I like it a lot.  I can give you a link if you want?
