Xbox 360 Chatpad packaged at 30 bucks

This itsy bitsy teeny weeny QWERTY keypad – try saying that 10 times fast – called the Chatpad will be released at US$ 29.99 a pop by September 4, says its own web page. The pad, part of the XBox 360 Messenger Kit, is packaged with a headset as well. It’s worth it for players who need total control over communication and a little socialization over Xbox Live Messenger.

It plugs into your controller seamlessly and sports a backlight if you like to play The Darkness with the lights off. Opinions are varied on the Chatpad. But why grab one if a headset would do fine? You could even use a regular USB keyboard, too, but then something that plugs directly to an Xbox 360 controller may suit you better.
