From what I've read in the forums, it doesn't look like there are any controllers available for the x30 (please correct me if I'm wrong) besides the thumb board on Dell's website. I was thinking we could get a petition going for Dell to make a game controller for the axims. What do you guys think?

Here! Here!
That D-Pad on this thing is the worst!

Not only X30, but my X50v D-Pad sux too..

That sounds like a great idea to me. My fingers are too big to use the D-pad effectively.

washo

that should be great to have a gamepad because with it we could use correctly FpseCE, pocketSNES and morphgear...I would like to have one but I just don't think Dell will make something like that...Maybe a 3rd party brand...who knows?

see you

perninha

Maybe a bluetooth gamepad? Will work? A few weeks ago i saw Xbox bluetooth gamepad.

a serial based one would work too, probably easier to make also

ENmusic

yeah, and wouldn't a serial one not use as much power as a bluetooth controller?

uapyro

maybe about the power issue, but a serial cable is easy to make, compared to making a bt interface

Hey could you send me a link for the dell thumb pad thingy. I gotta see it even though I'm hearing a lot of neg's about it.

Thanks

ENmusic

ill 2nd the request for an axim gamepad if it helps. i would buy one if it is reasonably priced

CopperTop5

Yep the thumb pad is way dumb! I would like to see a game pad for the dell as well!

It looks like the keyboard is eating the PDA.

Hee, now -that- is an image, I can see the news story...

"Ravenous Keyboard devours PDA! Film at 11!"

Seriously though, that is one lame piece of hardware. I'd sign a petition for a legitimate gamepad.
