I have the Shuttle pro with Mach3. Can't live without it. But a Joystick or JoyPad would do as well. Just positioning with the keyboard doesn't cut it any more once an external device has been used. I'll go and get that Logitech Gamepad. The ShuttlePro is also rather expensive by comparison. I do not plan to buy another one and I cannot take the one of my larger router. Rainer
