    Another odd question , You have all been very helpful btw. Anyways I was wondering if there was a possibility of having the PS3 Sixaxis controller work on my laptop as a Bluetooth device? Any help would be much appreciated.

    You can use a hacked Driver to connect the SIXAXIS via USB but, so far, no one has done the same thing for it via Bluetooth. If you need wireless, you could try the 360 Controller + 360 PC Wireless Controller Adapter. I use that and it works great!

    Personally, I'd love to be able to use my PS3 BT Remote with my computer. ;)

    Ah.... I guess I can try to settle for the USB Alternative. Hopefully something for Bluetooth comes up.
