Yeah I have a logitech wingman cordless and it works great. If you using Kernel 2.6 you definately want to go with a USB pad. My serial (Microsoft Sidewiinder Gamepad) had issues with 2.6 (it worked fine under 2.4 tho). I'd recommend Logitech or Microsoft for build quality of gamepads. Oh and I definately enjoy having a cordless keyboard and gamepad (I'm not sold on cordless mice yet).
