I'll chip in my thoughts on the announcement. The controller looks nice but I can't help thinking an iPod Touch would be more useful and have greater capability for an existing SB3 owner. The current iPeng interface that Pippin is developing is excellent and makes user of the larger screen from iPod Touch / iPhone. My only critiscm is the interface is a bit slow but I am sure this will improve especially when Apple actually release an SDK.
However, one thing I did note on the spec sheet was the "3-axis accelerometer" now that sounds interesting. Maybe we'll see Wii style control? But at £220 that is too close to the selling price of an iPod Touch 16GB. I won't be rushing to buy one until I've see quite a few reviews.
