Looks like an small attatchment for the controller or a USB keyboard. It's probably for Final Fantasy XI and other games that must utilise keyboards.

Thats a pretty cool attachment. Looks like one of those cell phones that have the flip out keyboard.

Why would you want a keyboard anyway? It seems like the communicator works pretty well....

You need them for games that don't use a communicator. Final Fantasy XI for example. Think of it as an accessory for MMORPG's.

What on earth makes you think FFXI won't use the communicator?

I think the keyboard is a good idea. Sure, stick to the communicator for live but I am sick of selecting the individual symbols....

I'm more interested in the remote they have pictured. Has DVR controls on it. I like Tivo, but I wouldn't mind cutting out one of my monthly bills.

Well the Xbox 360 version of FFXI will be connecting with existing servers. I.E. with PlayStation 2 and PC players. How would a communicator work then?

It's a good idea for MMO's for sure.
