While you'll still have to go the DIY route to get your hands on an Xbox 360 laptop, those pining for a Ben Heck creation of their very own will soon have a slightly easier go of it, as he's now teamed up with eDimensional Inc to bring out his first commercial product. Of course, Ben's not saying exactly what his product is just yet, only going so far as to say that it's a video game accessory and it'll cost less than $100. If you're feeling particularly prognostic about that, you can head over to eDimensional's site and enter their contest, where one lucky winner will take home the mystery accessory signed by the man himself.P.S. -For those not already in the know, ol' Hecky is an Engadget columnist. We'd like to think that won't sway your feelings about his mystery product, though.

Headphones. End of Discussion. He's making a Set of Headphones ok. Geez No one would have probably guessed those.
ps360 controller?
i'd pay £44.99/$79.99
for a wireless version of one of them
i know it is wired at the moment
On his site he says it will cost several hundred $$$ for him to do it again
Yeah well the thing is that it would be mass produced and would cost way less than it took him to make it the first time. He wouldnt be making at all some company would.
Good Point , Now only if PS3 had some games then i would buy that mod , for now my PS3 just collects dust
his site siad something about an atari portable, so i'm guessing that's it.
Ben -- congrats!
I think it's a one-handed controller for the 360. He said that he receives a lot of requests for them but they would need to be mass-produced to get the cost down.
My bet is on a universal controller compatible with all three systems.
One-handed controller for use on the 360 and PS3.
Ginger?
I could see Mr Heckendorn becoming an overnight millionaire. Give me $500 in stock.
I'd like to see a ps2 put into a guitar hero controller. I don't know how well shaking the game while its playing will work though.
