Very nice. Except that I can't comment on BBG without logging out of BB? If it's a sister site, there shouldn't be a need to register with both. If it is separate, why do I have to log out of BB to post anonymously on BBG? Something is fscked up.

You are right, Church. We are working to correct this.

Commenting....nice

The link to the iPhone GUI connects to a guy who claims to have written the package himself, but in reality he swiped it from The Dev Team (Gizmodo confirmed).

Proof lies in his attrocious spelling too.

The flippable controls on the Saitek controller are't innovative. In 2004 Radica were showing off controllers they were distributing for the Xbox and PS2 that allowed you to swap the positions of the d-pad, buttons and both analogue sticks.
