Just incase some of you don't know.

If you plug in the Xbox 360 wired pad into your PC and install:

Not only does the pad function great on games, BUT if you plug in the Xbox Live headset into the bottom, you can also use that headset on Windows.

I thought that was rather awesome tbh, especially as my proper PC headset just bit the dust

That reminds me, when is the wireless adapter for Windows PC being released? It is a USB device that allows you to use the wireless Xbox 360 controller with PC games. I havn't heard anything about it for months!

Bit of a bump here - but did this actually get released yet in the UK?#

EDIT: Bit more look searching the net now and appears to be set for 7th/16th Feb release depending on where you look.
