Do people play your PS3 without permission? Lock up that Sixaxis

You read correctly. Lock the Sixaxis. No, no, the controller itself doesn't have any sort of fancy locking feature, but a new, mostly worthless, peripheral has been showcased at Taiwan's Computex Taipei 2007 event for hardware and peripherals. This peripheral looks like a gigantic ... uh ... white leech and locks your Sixaxis or DualShock by its analog sticks. There's a three-digit code to unlock your controller, but since the thing appears to be plastic, there are always other ways to get to it.

Our question is this: who cares? The only people that should consider this are those with young siblings who either screw up your game or haphazardly delete your game saves. If you've got a lot of roommates (assuming you're in that college demographic) and they play your PS3 more than you can, it might be an all right investment. You'll definitely come off as a jerk, though. Regardless, we love our silly peripherals at PS3 Fanboy, so we thought we'd alert you to this one. Thoughts?
