QWERTY pad for Xbox 360

 

Microsoft announced a new feature for Xbox 360 which will add another dimension to this gaming console. Xbox Live users will now be able to chat up to six contacts on their messenger list while they are playing games, watching a movie or hearing music. To make things more easier, Microsoft has also unveiled a QWERTY text input attachment which is an extension to the controller. The new pad will also have its own headset.
