    Man, I don't know about you, but I'm sure really exited about getting a pad like this. The reason I never wanted to buy a USB keyboard for my PS2 is because I don't want to have a keyboard lying around in the livign room but with this thing, the keyboard is implemented in the PS2 pad. Now the only thing that bug me is the size of the key. I don't really know if they would be too small to be used quickly.

    well if you dont want to shell out 80 bucks for the fullsize logitech keyboard/gamepad, this is a decent alternative. looks to be about the same size as others that i've seen, except the ones i've seen had the keyboard on top(which is kinda lame), and regardless of the key size, you'll still be typing a hell of a lot faster than just trying to use the gamepad cycling through letters.

    altho personally i absolutely hate d-pads like that one has.

    Yeah, the D-Pad is kinda on the cheap side IMO. Personnaly, I would have prefered Sammy to release a keyboard add-on that would clip on actual Sony Dual Shock controller. You would be able to play with your normal pad, and the thing would be less expansive to buy. Just my 2 cents

    Hmm, wasn't aware of a second pad like this. I've seen the really big and bulky one but not another small one. The price is not too expansive but I prefer the key pad to be under and not on top.

    theres probably a couple others as well seeing as there is a market for it afterall. just do a good job of lookin around before you buy one.

    and personally, i find it easier to type on something above the gamepad since i dont have to readjust my hands, but thats just me.

    Well, I never actualy tried any of those pad so I can't really say what is best for sure. But I found out that there is a special kickass ''Auto-Modellista'' version of the first pad by Sammy

    well as far as movin your hands goes, you know its as big as a regular controller, so grab your controller and see how you have to position your hands to type on top or on the bottom.
