A Trackball Controller for the XBox 360 Has Arrived
Friday, December 10th, 2010 by StevenI was thrilled to get a heads up from Jay Garcia (inventor/Designer of the first Mouse/Keyboard adapter Smartjoy FRAG) earlier this week, announcing a fully operational trackball controller mod for the Xbox 360!
I was skeptical until I saw this:
I’m excited to have one of these controllers coming my way next week, and I’ll be one of the first to give it a hands-on review. In the meantime, you can get more details on this new device at Jay’s website: http://trackballcontroller.com.
Stay tuned.

So how is this thing? I’ve been waiting for something like this to come out for years and I’m eager to get your thoughts on it.

I have read and re-read this review at least 3 times. I broke down and spent a bill and a half on a new black XBox 360 Trackball Controller from Jay Garcia’s Ebay shop. I should have it either today or tomorrow. I cant wait! Being a “Southpaw” (I blame the Panther XL for that) I’m gonna have to learn the “trackball on the right side”. In the last few days of practice, my mind cant seem to get a grip on the new arrangement. When the Trackballer arrives, I’ll be forced to learn, nonetheless. I’ll be sure and post my progress and personal opinions of this controller.
