Hi!
I can't believe no one has made a gaming keyboard yet with a built in mini joystick on the left side. I hate using the WSAD keys playing games, and always configure the arrows keys instead. But with a built in mini joystick I think a gaming keyboard will be perfect (at least for me) to play FPS, Driving, and Flight games with. The joystick I'm thinking about is similiar to those on Korg Synthesizers, small, very responsive, and durable. The only alternative now is to buy a big joystick, but those are only suitable for Flight Sims. So now I'm using a joystick for flight games, a Gamepad for driving games, and keyboard for FPS games. So why not combine them all with a mini joystick on a keyboard?
Is it just me, or is it anyone else out there who want the same thing?

There is a comprimise now; the G13. It would not be practical to have a joystick on a keyboard because you could reach the keys unless you mean a big massive flight simulator type joystick that also has buttons on it, at which point you might as well buy it separately.
If you just want a mini joystick, the G13 combines that with 25 programmable keys, which work great for FPS.
