New Microsoft Force Feedback Wheel?

I am looking for a steering wheel, and was almost buying a Thrustmaster when I found this: http://www.microsoft.com/products/hardware/sidewinder/news/ Does anybody know what is behind the logo with the checkered flags. Seems to me that MS will bring out a force feedback wheel. Just guessing:-) Anyway I will wait a bit before buying a Thrustmaster. Anyone who knows about this upcoming device from MS? -- -Jan Otto Ruud

Buy the SC&T ultimate Per4mer FF wheel, it is superb!! >I am looking for a steering wheel, and was almost buying a Thrustmaster when >I found this: >http://www.microsoft.com/products/hardware/sidewinder/news/ >Does anybody know what is behind the logo with the checkered flags. Seems to

Yes Indeed!! In the very near future, There will be Force Feedback Steering Wheels available for tour PC!! I do believe that MS will have one out hopefully sometime before X-Mas this year. I think this will be a great addition for all PC racing fans. But, The Nascar Pro Race Wheel and the Thrustmaster wheels are also VERY good steering wheels. But, I will be waiting for the Force Feedback wheel. Good luck on finding the wheel you want :) *ukhoops01 Zone MVP >I am looking for a steering wheel, and was almost buying a Thrustmaster when >I found this: >http://www.microsoft.com/products/hardware/sidewinder/news/ >Does anybody know what is behind the logo with the checkered flags.

Force Feedback wheels are available now. Why wait? Trips

well, in response to your question about the "Checkered Flags", when you get a chance take a look at a Chevrolet Corvette. They are similar twin flags that has been used since the late 50's.

What happened to Thrustmaster's planned force feedback whee? It is no longer on their Web site. Also Actlabs Force RS is still coming. If you don't see it today, forget waiting, I'd buy Thrustmaster's Nascar Pro racing wheel. The only bummer are the pedals (tolerable). On Fri, 15 May 1998 11:02:05 +0200, "Jan Otto Ruud"
