I am just thinking of configuration. You have to look at the screen and place it somewhere as in your hand is the controller that sets the config. How do you want to place it if the cables come out on Top? That is also why I think the best Form of the XIM3 would be a mouse tablet or a tablet where you can place your mouse surface on. You can see it, config it, you don´t have to fetch it and cables are short.

On the picture the ports are on the top of the XIM3. This would make it impossible to put it upright somewhere, the cables would pull it down. Shouldn’t the ports be on either side?

I just think a simple box is boring. At least display a picture as its always on.




This is a standing pictureframe

Here is a good one: looking at the design the platina and the display, they could easily be put side by side. My question is besides the controller, what will every Ximmer use? Yes you are so right, it’s a mouse! So what should the Xim3 be if not a box that just sits there and that you have to fetch to do adjustments? What would bring it to the closest possible if using a wireless mouse? What would spare you one component? What would make it look really cool? Right, a mousepad! The most expensive mousepad EVER! LOL
That I would like!

And we all hope you get to this project real soon.
btw. This famous Thonet 1920 Bauhaus Breuer side table can be moved under the sofa so the table would rest just beside your right arm to be a mouse tablet!

Sure, 90% of the Xboxes are in front of a tele in a living room. People I know all sit on a Sofa. That is why the move to a device only XIM3 is such a genious idea. Such a bulky ugly device that has to lay on a surface, even if its great and has all imaginable controls is not the best way to go IMHO. What do you need to do with the left Hand? You need to move with the stick that is pushable and have at least two fire buttons, thats all (dunno maybe a/b/x/y would be great there too). The right hand will do the rest, gaming mouses have buttons enough. So if you would sell a nunchuck and a mouse that are optimized for the XIM3 I would be a buyer immediatedly. Did you try and dislike the nunchuck/mouse combo?

OBsIV, I will also buy the G13 if there is no other option but it is quite a Geeky device. Put it on the couch when a girl comes over for visit and it was the last time you saw here. Puhh good I am married. Maybe you could answer my question I was asking some entries above. If a device is anouncing itself to windows as mouse and keyborad like the Scorch and the nunchuck allready is supported by XIM2. Do you think XIM3 will also recognize it as mouse and Keyboard. I guess its a yes but I am not sure?

With the first player who uses a working mouse and Keyboard combo in your Multilayer match you are not a cheater but an idiot if you do not use it! If you do not use it, it ruins your game as others aim three to five times as fast as you do.

As long as its possible, its valid.

unfortunately Glen is right. I did not realize it, I showed the picture to my wife saying look, this is something I will buy. She said well yeah and why is it called Wix if its is so good? Nothing really you can do but who cares anyway.

Besides the new name I am very excited, will be the coolest Box of cigarettes I ever had!

I actually use XIM for the translation performance with the scorch/fns combo since the device registers with the PC as a keyboard/mouse. Best of both worlds.

Does this mean it will likely work with the XIM3 as keyboard and mouse? Is this possible with one USB Dongle? Interesting as for me it’s a perfect way (I am on Mac) to kill the time until Release and still keep them as input devices.

I don´t have a PC for a XIM2 so until I wait for the XIM3 I will buy a scorch. Not very expensive after all. Maybe the Hardware could be used with the XIM3 would not be a bad Idea to support it. Hehe.
