Logitech has introduced Wingman cordless Rumblepad, a personal interface
device for gamin enthusiasts. The Rumblepad incorporates 2.4 GHz wireless
technology.
The device has a 50-hour battery life coupled with a range of 20-feet.
Included with WingMan Cordless RumblePad is a compact 2.4 GHz receiver, which
connects to the PC´s USB port.
While in operation, the receiver and cordless gamepad are always
"channel hopping," as they constantly check each other´s channel to
confirm that the connection is reliable and interference-free.
Dual analog sticks and an 8-way D-pad provide directional control, while two
small motors in the handles of the gamepad vibrate independently to give
simulated environmental effects.
A dedicated "rumble" button turns the vibration feature off when
not used. A throttle is also included in the new design, as are 11 programmable
buttons.
Another dedicated "mode" button easily switches the functionality
of the gamepad between sports and flight simulation modes.
The WingMan cordless RumblePad includes four AAA batteries, a one-year
warranty and has a USB-only interface. The product is priced at Rs 4,999.
