One other general question: Will you be able to repeat your testing as controllers come and go (and change)? Hi josh, At the moment we will be evaluating the controllers that are available to the public for use and we are going to evaluate what each controller offers. If there is a significant change in a controller or there happens to be a launch of a new controller (we are probably going to launch one ourselves in the near future) we will most definitely be willing to change/better the evaluation techniques. :) Abdullah.
