My idea of camping is the following: secluded wooded area, Horse stable, forest with lakes and streams for hiking and boating, High speed internet connection, fully functional kitchen, full bathroom with flushable toilet and shower, queen size bed, nice size kitchen table for eating, a large deck for relaxing and entertaining Veto and I have all this or we wouldn't go camping. Tent??? How can a gamer go tent camping??? No-can-do! We have a seasonal site that provides us all the seclusion we desire but all the comforts of modern technology too. Gabriella That's not camping! Camping is carrying everything you need on your back and not seeing a power line or a road for a week.

Wow, that is quite the "camping" experience. I'm typically lucky to have more than a light sleeping bag, much less a full luxury resort.

So i got a n52te the other day and im really enjoying it.
It does take alittle time to get used to since i have never used a gamepad before.
Also, i found that my left hand is retarded and has a mind of its own. Trying to teach that dog new tricks.
The macro setup and key bindings are easy to create. The gamepad comes with software that is really helpful and an easy interface.

Make sure you get the latest drivers and firmware, I found those helped a bit with the couple of little bugs I had.

I've been trying my N52te for about 2 weeks now with WoW and LOVE IT!!! As Odalus said.. easy to setup with their software! If you do decide to try it out, be sure you do all your firmware updates BEFORE you program it! If you are over-anxious you'll just end up reprogramming it all over again after the updates. =)

What do you use it for? I tried an older one, but I use teh number keys to do attacks and the Fn keys to target groupmates (when healing), so the small keypad didn't cut it for me. Mine is currently in a box.

I was a breath away from purchasing the n52te after reading this thread and checking everything out, but then elected to try out the ideazon merc. Like Odalus said above, my left hand doesn't seem to be connected to the brain well when it comes to fine motor skills. Partly because of completely borking it when I shattered the ulnar side of the wrist. So I was afraid I would not be able to use it well. I haven't gotten the keyboard yet. I'm hoping I like it.

All I did was simple key binds allowing me to not have to look down at the keyboard... basically used just like a number pad, all feel. I now play one hand on mouse, one hand on the n52, and only let go to chat. I keep adding little things as I go to each button and refine each class as I play them.. but its been a godsend for me! =)

That'd be handy for all those times that I type in Cyrillic.

so I decided today to buy a fang gamepad. Good reviews, cheap price(getting it for like $25ish from amazon with some deal and some Paypal leftovers lol)
I like the look, amount of buttons, and portability.
Was gonna buy the N52 or TE but they are too much. $50 is the lowest I could find.
