LOGITECH(r) DUAL ACTION(tm) PAD DELIVERS TWO-FISTED FUN
New Gamepad For PC and Mac Rich In Features
Fremont, CA - May 19, 2003 - Logitech (Nasdaq:LOGI) (Switzerland:LOGN) today announced that the Logitech(r) Dual Action(tm) Pad, previewed last week at the E3 tradeshow in Los Angeles, will be available this summer on retail shelves in the U.S. and at www.logitech.com . Pricing is not yet available.
"Many of today's games require dual analog control, but until now there have been few good dual analog controllers available," said Fred Swan, Director of Marketing for Logitech's Audio and Interactive Entertainment Business Unit. "The Logitech Dual Action Pad boasts a new, smaller design, and is loaded with features that gamers need to help stay at the top of their game, including dual analog control."
The lightweight design features two rubber-capped analog joysticks that provide total control with a silky smooth 360-degree motion, while an eight way D-pad allows for precise movements within a game. In addition, four responsive triggers and six buttons give gamers the right stuff for eliminating the competition with ease. Compatible with both a PC and a
Mac, the gamepad offers a "plug and play" USB connection.
The Logitech Dual Action Pad includes the acclaimed Logitech(r) Gaming Software for PC that allows gamers to customize many aspects of the gamepad's performance. Also included on the disc are two software packages from GameSpy Industries, Inc. The GameSpy(tm) Arcade(r) offers many features to enhance online gaming and also includes Roger Wilco(tm), a voice chat application that allows gamers to talk to each other while playing multiplayer online games.
