I'm surprised it even got a 3 egg review, looks like garbage to me.  My experience in trying to use bluetooth controllers with my netbook was aweful, worked, but the latency was ridiculous.

Yeah, I was going to hack a sega genesis controller to my zeemote, but decided it had too much lag.

Atari came out with a competing product that's hardwired, but it looks even cheaper:
