Well, read the article. It pretty much confirms MSN Messenger on the 360. But still.....that thing's enormous! lol

Well it looks kinda fake due to the head phone jack at the bottom and will probably be a plugin. Another thing that makes it seem fake is the Xbox 360 Elite coming out soon if it's not already out. I mean It's probably really good photo editing like this

I've seen the article on 2 different websites. IGN is pretty credible, and they too confirmed the release date for it. So don't be so sure. My only problem with it is the sheer size of it. I mean.....ugh, no comment. lol

if you read the bit below the pic, it IS supposed to be an addon, not a new controller -

Rumor has it this odd little attachment is coming out in May. Now, if the Xbox 360 only had a built-browser this would be worth owning.

Yeah, I just noticed that bit. But they do make a good point......the 360 does need a web broswer.

by the look of it, i think its designed in a way that you'll mat even touch it unless you want to while playing, looks slim so the finger grippy bit of the controller will still be there. only problem i see with it is that it will add extra weight to the bottom of the controller, but probably not much weight.

It spells pain and horror for anyone with big hands. Plus has nobody heard of USING AN ACTUAL KEYBOARD.

I think it looks good. I assume you can just detatch it whilst gaming..

STEVE, I NEED MORE MOTIVATION TO BUY A 360.

Joe, I've already offered to sex you up on the Xbox Vision cam. If that's not enough to get you to buy one, I don't know what is!

its an attachment for the current 360 controller, making it a decent size, and making the keyboard part removable, learn to read!
