The mouse that's more.
The mouse is one of the most versatile methods of input into a computer. It's not the best at everything, though, and sometimes having a console-style gamepad is the better tool for the job.
This is where the Shogun Bros. Chameleon X-1 comes into play, which does triple duty of being a mouse, a gamepad and a remote control. The most notable functions are the first two, of course, which reveal themselves below.
It will ship in the first quarter of 2011 for an estimated $55.
At least its not as overpriced as a thought it was going to be.

Sleek design!
Nice to see a mouse that doubles as a game pad. This would be perfect to play need for speed on my computer... That is.. if I didn't already have a PS2 controller to USB adapter that works awesome for racing games since I don't have/want a full steering wheel setup.

Then a week later you copy paste their stuff
How cool is that.
I wonder how they'll handle the dust/grime/crud that accumulates over time on the pad?
Maybe this is the left-handed version?
as a controller...not so much
