Planet GeForce has posted a review on Logitech´s WingMan RumblePad force-feedback controller.

... I was rather skeptical that the analog sticks on the RumblePad would make sufficient substitute for a much larger joystick, such as my Gravis Firebird2 (which is certainly showing it´s age). However after several hours of missions in X-Wing Alliance (hey Joanne, you should be happy that I´m expanding my horizons ) my mind is certainly changed. No doubt the sticks on the RumblePad do take getting used to; the difference between moving one´s thumb as apposed to one´s entire hand to complete a maneuver is quite large. Also having very little tension on the sticks makes over-controlling
a bit too easy. However once you get the feel for it the WingMan does an amazing job.

I took me a while, but after much tweaking I was able to come up with a super sweet setup (oooh... alliteration!), using the two sticks for pitch, yaw and roll, and the pad for cycling targets and components of capital ships. With the nine remaining buttons I was able to put together all my weapons and shield controls so that I wouldn´t even have to touch the keyboard. Snazzy =)
