The single click issue is an interesting one - I also find this
difficult on occasions with the latest firmware (7.0.1 SC). It used to
be a lot easier with some of the early beta firmwares, but those
firmwares were impossibly slow when scrolling long lists of items.

Overall I'm pleased with the Controller and have no regret whatsoever in
buying one. If I'm being fussy I would say that it is sometimes hard to

I'd agree - the wheel works generally well when scrolling through lists
but is not good at moving single steps - this is definitely something
that needs some tweaks.

It was, just a much smaller set of testers. Regardless, beta testing

I've been using the controller over the last couple of months almost
