Saitek Wireless Game Pad-P2900 Review

I bought this joystick because I really wanted a wireless gamepad with 4 shoulder buttons and 6 side buttons. This one really seemed to be the only choice.

However, there are some serious problems with it. The USB dongle takes up a lot of power, which means it doesn't work on many of the USB splitters/hubs on the market. I have 2 wireless mice connected to my Monitor USB ports, and they work fine, but Saitek engineering just doesn't seem to know how to do that.

I called Tech suppport to see what was going on and Saitek recommends that you plug it in the back of the computer. However, the signal for this thing is just plain awful. You pretty much need to be within 3 feet of the signal and have a clear line of sight. So unless you turn your computer around, plugging it in directly doesn't really help.

I finally got this partially working by adding a powered USB hub with this one joypad as the sole thing connected to it - and sticking that right on my desk. Now my signal is still bad, with stuck buttons a good 1/3 of the time, but this is the best that I could make it. I should note, that it took 3 different hubs before I found one that did even this.
