For a jog pendant, absolutely. Jogging is done under optical feedback control, so even with a MPG the odd missed step wouldn't even be noticed. With an analogue joypad latency is a non-issue. > Most the 'pads I have found are USB. > Is there any brand/model known not to work and to stay away from also any > that work great and are common/easy to find ? I have one that declares itself as "Dragonrise" and I can't recommend it. It was £5 from ebay. It works, but the analogue sticks have a large, off-centre dead-band. I am very likely indeed to be swapping it to a cordless one (the wire is a bit of a worry near whirling handles, and also limits where the device can be put down). After some online research (but no practical experience) the likely choice is the Logitec Cordless RumblePad II. -- atp ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ The Planet: dedicated and managed hosting, cloud storage, colocation Stay online with enterprise data centers and the best network in the business Choose flexible plans and management services without long-term contracts Personal 24x7 support from experience hosting pros just a phone call away. http://p.sf.net/sfu/theplanet-com _______________________________________________ Emc-users mailing list [email protected] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/emc-users
