I just ordered one of these link
I'll have a review up soon, but wanted to know if anyone has tried it, i dont think ive seen it on this website, but i havent been on much lately.
Its a touch sensitive midi controller that is kinda like a Kaoss pad, but instead of being just XY it is XYZ, the Z is how much pressure you apply. you can make your own template covers for it too out of paper or rubber and use it as a drum pad. it looks like it has a few drawbacks (it only registers one touch at a time) but seems really good for the price.

I use a wacom with a wacom-to-midi tool. just as good but cheaper
and doubles as an actual wacom tablet for art ;D

Q: It seems additional software is PC only. Any chance of Mac OSX apps?
Yes. Anticipated date for Mac versions is end of Q2 2006.

That thing reminds me of the Koala Pad for the C-64. I have no choice but to like it.
