Going to test this on my PC. My plan is to plug it into my controller and bind game keys that I don't have enough buttons for. I want to try this as an alternative to a steam controller. I will set it up so that a button the chatpad switches the controls, so I can switch my left stick to mouse controls among other things. It could also make other games easier, the Witcher for example, if I want to get my inventory, instead of pausing and selecting the section, I can just press the I key. Is anyone else interested in this? I'll make a new topic reviewing it once I get it. If I can't bind keys to the chatpad, I'll keep it anyway, I always have my chatpad attached to my 360 remote. Here's a link to the chatpad: http://www.xbox.com/en-US/xbox-one/acces...ns/chatpad

The gamepad has the potential to revolutionize gaming, allowing full control over your computer if Microsoft includes cursor support for the device.

The issue appears to be that it's difficult to maintain a stable hold on the controller, as the intended grip area is obstructed by the keyboard.

It wasn't an issue for me with the 360 setup—it's all about personal taste. Still, we can't say for sure what the Xbone pad will be like.

It might depend on how long your fingers are. I’m not sure if I’d be able to play games with this.

I didn't enjoy the 360 feature much, though my wife was confident about it. The t9 classic text input option felt more efficient to me.

I've always enjoyed using the chatpad. It feels very comfortable, and typing there is pleasant—especially on the Xbox 360. I'm really looking forward to it. It's great that it works with Windows too.

Sure, I bought my 360 chatpad once I discovered it needed a wired remote. I’m hoping it will function properly with the new wireless adapter this time!
