Actually, I use the WASD too. All default config (easy to remember).

But I was wondering. Anyone heard of the Nostromo N50 Speedpad. It is suppose to be made for FPS, I've tried it out in store and it feels good. Hand rest and has a keyboard setup (8 buttons in two rows of four). Three are setup for directional and the others for quicking binding.

Looks nice...anyone have it?

<HR></BLOCKQUOTE>yes

its great

10 keys actually 2 rows of 5 and an 8 way Dpad.

i sacrifice 2 keys for 2 extra "modes" (blue mode and green mode).

normal mode = Blue shift,Q,W,E,R on top and I,A,S,D,Green shift on the bottom row with

I foret all the exact mappings i use but it goes like this

Normal mode = basic movement and basic commands(drop gun move strafe etc..)

Blue shift = WASD for movement with the rest of the buttons bound for communication.

Green shift = nothing right now, probably going to use it for communication. In Counter-Strike i used green shift and the autobuy script and had all my buys bound to green shift.

the best thing about the speed pad is its comfort and flexibility.
