a nostromo type controller from Saitek, looks like it may fit the larger hands better than the nostromo...

I have the n52 and LOVE it. I've had three. I've worn out one, bought a replacement and was sent a replacement for free. My second one is worn out too - so I'm about to get my fourth.

I have very large hands too. My watches have all been special order and my ring size is 14 (just like my feet - lol). The n52 fits like my hand like OJ's blood soaked glove.

In looking at that controller, the one thing I don't like is that the keys are not orthogonal like the keys on Nostromo.

I have a saitek Cyborg (I think that's what it's called) joystick. The hardware is great but the software can be a little buggy.

I had a nostoromo n52 once...I used it for about 2 weeks and still never felt as comfortable with it as I did the keyboard. Now is just sits in one of my desk drawers gathering dust. I can't say enough good things about the Wolf Claw keboard I recently purchased though. The learning curve was about 3 games...ever since then, it's been pure joy. :-D

yeah SJ, I seen yer pic, you ARE a big dude. Hey, if we need a Colorado UT basketball team, you and Lunch and I could be the front line, we're all pretty big folk lol

I bought a nostromo after seeing your posts about it in SBD's forums. I like my n52, much better than a standard keyboard for me, I just wish I could adjust the wrist rest on it, it looks like it should be adjustable. The wolfs claw looks like it'd be really nice, but I ten key all my numeric input.

I guess the quandry is: buy a wolf claw, plus a numeric keypad, or try this new saitek controller, which also looks like it'll compliment my Saitek keyboard: http://www.saitekusa.com/usa/prod/eclipse2.htm

The wrist rest is adjustable. The entire black rest can be moved back. It fits into the gray plastic via a pinned type friction connection. If you pry it up, you can move it back about 3/8".

well I'll be dipped in... nevermind, it is... thanks!

I think I must've gotten one with extraordinary friction, then... I thought I was gonna break it

Not just yours.

I've read several forums posts about how it's adjustable and never believed them as mine seemed like it was bolted together. But, with a little prying, it popped loose.
