The Xbox 360 Messenger Kit is available for sale starting today, so I thought I’d link to a few of the reviews that have surfaced in the past couple of weeks. Having endured the painfully slow experience of entering text via a joystick and the four available buttons on the 360 controller, I can understand the appeal of the “Chatpad”. Still if I need to enter enough text to justify plinking down $30 for an add-on QWERTY keyboard. I will probably wait until I start playing something that requires a large amount of text input first. I also hope the keyboard comes in black as well as white, because I am not sure I like the Elite controller with the white Chatpad look. The Xbox 360 Messenger Kit should be available it all of the normal retail outlets as well as Amazon and other etailers. |

Your experience totally echoes mine. I really WANT that chatpad, but can’t justify it. Especially since it’s so easy to send a voice message anyway. If there was a MORG for the 360, then yeah I could see getting it. OTOH, it is just $30, and I have some BestBuy gift cards in my wallet….
