Hot on the heels of Janet’s news about the Fling controller, comes a similar add-on for iPad and Android tablet devices. It’s the JOYSTICK-IT from ThinkGeek. This is a lightweight solid milled-aluminum joystick that is compatible with 1000’s of games that feature a virtual on-screen control pad. It’s not clear if it uses some sort of suction cup to stay affixed to the screen, or if it uses an adhesive. Either way, it will not harm the screen and can be removed and repositioned multiple times. Another bonus is that it does not require batteries. I need one of these for that Edge iPad game that I reviewed but am still stuck on! The JOYSTICK-IT will be available later this month at $24.99.

Now this looks like its worth the $25 price….unlike the Fling.
