I stumbled upon this while googling for a Xbox 360 keyboard( there isn't one). I found this concept very interesting, and I will be trying to find a cheap keyboard that has USB support for use with Xbox Live.
The controller/keyboard thing shown in the power point is VERY interesting and something I would not hesistate to purchase. It would work extremely well with games like Phantasy Star, etc, and in lobbies of all games. Imagine smack talking in a football game inbetween downs? I remeber doing that with NFL2K online with the Dreamcast. Good times.
 
That's so small then I rather to use regular keyboard.
 
Yes, I agree. But when I wish to type quickly, like "Heal me!" or something in the middle of the game, I will really like and benefit from something like that. I can see myself getting used to it and typing without looking at the keyboard(I do that with the SK2), and still involved in the game whilst typing. A simple USB keyboard will suffice, but I will need to put the controller down each time. That will be fine, but when I play something like Phantasy Star Online, I really think that controller/keyboard hybrid would really work wonders.

Oh, that is very old news. I was hoping for that. It did not going to happen this time. Xbox 360 said about using USB keyboard. It looks like they are not going to make controller with keyboard. OH well. That's fine with me. There are some white USB keyboard will be look great with xbox 360.
