Just a matter of working yout google magic... for istance: "control Windows" gamepad might work... :-) Good luck, Ryan Rico,

I'm looking forward to using the Xbox 360 controller on my Mac once I make the next-gen console leap. Soon, I'm going to pick up the small ThinkOutside Bluetooth keyboard for use on my iMac and LifeDrive interchangeably. I have a tiny NYC apartment, and I need all the space and interoperability I can get! The USB adapters are kind of bulky for laptop or iMac usage.

I've been using it with a Clie SJ30, a TE, T3 etc. And it even works with my SDA (WinMobile phone). It maybe was the best investment I've ever made... Reusability…that’s why I love my IR-keyboard.

You can get them to fit any of the now-gen systems (and many retro systems), and they only cost between $15 and $25 (Canadian). Why not buy a USB adaptor?

I have a Logitech keyboard that works with m500 and T|T2 but, of course, is useless to my T|E2. I'd also like Palm to wake up to the fact that Nokia has sold more mobile phones than anyone else and make the Palms able to use a Nokia charger: everyone's got at least one lieing around somewhere. This would simplify packing for travel as well. I’m all for reuseability. I have a Logitech keyboard that works with m500 and T|T2 but, of course, is useless to my T|E2.
