Interact V4(FF) or Microsoft FF Wheel

  I'm planning on buying one of the two FF wheels in the subject line.
The local EB store has both.  The differences in price is significant.
I know that I can buy the Microsoft via the net for significantly less,
but that would still be ~$30+ more than the V4.  Is the Microsoft wheel
worth that?  Its my first wheel, so I'm hoping to buy a logical choice.
I prefer to buy local if within reason for the obvious. I've seen so
many comments on the Microsoft wheel here, but would like to hear from
V4 owners.

The reason why you have not heard anything about the Interact wheel is
because that wheel is pure crap. I would not use that V4 thing even if they
paid me to use it. Go for the MS wheel. Sometimes you have to spend a few
bucks more for quality.

Hi Fred,

I'll second Gary's opinion of the V4.  Awful.  I had it for one day
and returned it.  Absolutely the worst FF wheel I've used, by far.  It
would not surprise me if we see the V4 bundled with Nascar Revolution
in a few months. ;)

The Microsoft wheel is *well* worth the price when compared to the V4.

The best buy near my house has dropped the interact price down to $99.
I asked a salesman if it was a time-limited price, and he said he
wouldn't be suprised if they ended up blowing them out at $49 before it
was all over because they couldn't move them.
