A joystick is in the early double digits (if even that). Somehow I doubt this will be for awhile. At the very least I imagine it will go to mid to late double.

Also, when have you heard of prototype joystick for 500? Even if they sell it at 10% of that, it's still going to be a good 50 (an average gamer will probably buy it at some point eventually for that). But realistically I see it being in the 200 area. I could get a cheap holiday for that.

And this is the dumbest thing I've ever heard. Just because you might be able to type without looking at the keyboard doesn't mean everyone can. I've been on a PC since the age of 5 and while I can type a fair bit without looking, sometimes I do still need to look. Especially when my thinking process slows down for whatever reason (lack of sleep, lot on mind, etc). If maradine's post doesn't convince you that not everyone can then I'll simply say good day to you.
