Please put posts in the correct forum. This is about a game -- use the game forum.

No bluetooth joysticks out yet. However, microstuff has a BT keyboard and joystick that apparently works on the mac, although I haven' yet tried it.

Here is the place to keep track of what bluetooth products are currently available:

http://bluetooth.com/tech/products.asp

You know, I downloaded the demo and can't seem to pick modified key strokes for movements. Such as using ctrl left and right arrow for strafing. The preference area has you click into an area in which you provide a key stroke for that particular move, but it won't except any combination key strokes. Any ideas? I've only fooled with it once, so there is apparently something I'm missing, but I'd appreciate some help.

All wireless products except the Logitech MX700 are worthless for first-person shooter games. Likewise, joysticks aren't precise or responsive enough to be used in shooters, either.

I recommend you get a Logitech MX300. It's the nicest optical mouse money can buy. It might be corded, but its shape is perfect. Its optical sensor is unsurpassed by any other optical mouse, too. It doesn't skip, and it's extremely precise.
