I'd love to buy these but judging by the posting date they were never released.

Too expensive for the desktop crowd and not realistic enough for the sim building crowd.

When mom & dad is footing the bill a standard six instrument layout is a lot. :roll:

I'm still waiting for someone to take those LCD picture frames and hacking the USB input on them into something useful. Most have some type of basic programming/OS in them. Anyone crack one open and see what chip they use?

Hi,
This release came out just before Saitek were taken over by Madcatz the game hardware people.Wouldnt be surprised to see them surface sometime in the future.As Saitek seem to be producing a line of Flightsim
hardware.I think the price was going to be US$100 per unit.
Thats all the imfo i have.
