Fling iPad joystick thumbs-on

Ask any real gamer about gaming on a touchscreen, and the first thing you’ll hear is he or she lamenting over the lack of physical buttons. Ten One Design aims to remedy this legitimate complaint with its Fling joystick add-ons for the iPad. The product is simple enough, a twisted piece of plastic with capacitive contact points in the center and suction cups to stick it to the screen. They feel quite like the joysticks on a PSP, and make gaming on the device seriously more enjoyable — not to mention natural feeling — and other than that there’s not much else to say. Oh wait, did we mention they cost $25… each? Yeah, total buzzkill.
