SIXAXIS + keyboard = PS3 Wireless Thumbpad |
Ó
Finally. Something to make text input easier on the PS3. Some of you guys might have abhorred typing in some stuff with a SIXAXIS. And while you could plug in your own keyboard via USB... why not kill two pterodactyls with one huge comet and transform your controller into a keyboard itself? (saves a lot of space, ya?)The Mad Catz laboratories rolled out a new peripheral: the PS3 Wireless Thumbpad. And at US$ 30, it's quite a bargain too. Thirty bucks get you the following features:
- Functional multi-key QWERTY interface
- Enhances in-game messaging capabilities
- Convenient clip-on design
- Fully compatible with PS3's web browsing functions
- Plug and play technology
- All PS3 controller buttons still accessible
- Removable clamp increases versatility

any way i think this idea is very good the xbox 360 one loosk better thou ima a ps3 fan alrdy got the keyboard so no need for this but still gonna get it
saw it coming
Hey, do you guys think this might support something like Yellow Dog Linux or Fedora Core too?
360 looks better however 360 one is pointless.
Ps3 version is atleast useful through the web browser.
I hope this will work not only with the ps3 but also things like my pc +] or my treo
if this goes into the usb part of the controller... then it can fit on the PSP as well :)
yea since it has a usb adapter, ydl will see it as a usb keyboard. (however don't forget that you cannot use your sixaxis wirelessly with ydl) so not sure how useful it would be for ydl.
and doubt that
Wow, XBOX ripoff big time.
why don't people just plug up their pc usb keyboard/mouse to the ps3? it would make typing easier than this. Its not like the 360 where you don't have have any other option than to use something like this.
How are your fingers supposed to reach the keys comfortably at the top like that?
its much easier to just plug in a standard USB keyboard and mouse, considering that they are fully compatable with the PS3.
i they make sumthin like this for psp
Its much more simple to just plug in a keyboard with an usb plug, I just use an adapter that converts my normal keyboard to a usb. This is not really necessary for the Playstation 3.
X360 version is not useless - will be used for sending txt messages + chatting on windows live messenger in the X360!
