i guess the pistol grip isn't too bad an idea, but it looks like it actually has a pretty limited range of motion. then you have to remember that you have no ability to pick up and move the controller to keep scrolling/moving the cursor. that is a deal breaker for me.

yeah, you could have a sensitivity that allows its range of motion to go a full 360 ... but meh. it looks kinda scary too.

for some reason I see that lying in a pile of broken mice next to my sledge hammer in my backyard. I jsut see it happening. those are all the mice that I had to disipline due to their ability to not cooperate with my uber gameplay. :)

LMAO frag... yeah I've ripped the cords out of enough mice. Or shot em. I do that to lay to rest all my old gear that stops working. *bang* It's a good idea but you'd have to retrain all that muscle memory you've built through all those hours of FPS'ing with a mouse. Could be good for non-FPS's though.
