after going a few rounds with this attached to my controller - I have given it away.

over the last 30+ days it has been nothing but deadweight - its very innacurate. If you type too fast it will skip letter entries. If you type too slow you will get multiple characters per single keypress....

the thing blos.

When I need to bother ill just plug in my small USB kbd.

MrAngryFace · « **Reply #1 on:** October 16, 2007, 01:52:49 AM »

Its not inaccurate, I use it a lot :p Im almost positive one key does not = a bunch of key presses. I think you lack dexterity

No I was a blackberry power user for 5+ years.

This thing blos.

If you are reporting completely different results I could have had a defective unit - but I dont think I care enough to try again with another. My first impression stands defective unit or not - this is shittier than the worst 3rd party Playstation accessories that flood the market.

Take your end user conspiracy elsewhere.

No it just sucks like the shoddy first run X360 wireless headsets.

So far MSFT has released some total stinkass hardware this gen...

First run X360's - awful overheating broken down shyt boxes.

First run wireless X360 hedsets - a product launch so bad the wireless headsets will forever carry a bad rep (I got the second run of the wireless headsets and mine works perfectly so I dont mind this product)

And now this shitty X360 messenger kit.

MSFT really needs to learn that first impressions mean everything.

People dont want to buy the broken down non QA'ed product on the first run and become the QA team themselves....

If you are saying it works as well as you claim - you must have a different version of it. I bought the first unit my Gamestop got in stock and right now its the worst XBOX $$ I have spent ever.

Do I need to make a a user video and post it?

Real easy to hold the kbd in front of the screen and show you what I am pressing and the output all together in the same frame.

Fo real MAF - your blind loyal MSFT defense in this thread when you know good and well MSFT releases shoddy non QA'ed hardware (see launch X360's and launch wireless headsets) is sickening.

Head over to OA buddy.

Example?

I guess I gotta make a user video for you.

I gave the MSN kit away to a friend but he hasnt picked it up yet.

Ill show you a bit of the shyt on video - then you can rethink your silly claims.

I've honestly heard nothing but good things about it, from folks who bought it... and I neither work for Microsoft or have this particular product!

i have the messenger kit, too -- works fine.

abrader · « **Reply #11 on:** October 16, 2007, 11:33:34 AM »

Why is "bought it" in bold - I think mostly everyone who has it bought it.

I wish I could get a full refund on it - but I have had it since release.

Again I will show you how mine works in video - but if there are no other reported problems, id say I just have a bad unit.

I bolded bought because I'm assuming you STOLE it abrader or have no actually used the device, since nobody else has any complaints. My previous store manager and associates who bought it have begged me to pick one up because I type too slow.

The Xbox 360 hardware is faulty with a 100% defect rate, along with the steering wheels having those issues, this does not surprise me. There may be a few good messenger kits out there, but I serious believe there's some faulty ones.

And no, abrader isn't being any kind of fanboy, he's only stating his issue, that's all.

Professor Prole and Weighted Companion Cube, you both aren't funny.

so why didn't he say "fuck, i bought a faulty messenger kit unit. guess i better return it. before i waste the cash, does anyone else have this problem?"

no, he said MSFT (this is where the stock broker joke comes from -- MSFT is the MS trading symbol) MAKES ANOTHER SHIT PERIPHERAL HNRF HNRF HAW even though folks have pointed out that they make great optical mice. add a sprinkling of sony fantard mana knight and voila! a shitty thread destined to spawn abuse, drama, and resentment!

After his rant on operating systems I dont really trust abrader to be fair and balanced in anything.
