Ben Heck of modding fame follows up his 5.1 headset for eDimensional with a one-handed PS3/PS2/PC controller. Although it’s made for disabled gamers to play games they otherwise couldn’t on a standard DualShock gamepad because of the swappable control modules, it’s also very useful for regular gamers who need something they can handle with one hand while eating.
Remember that mystery product Benjamin Heckendorn was creating with eDimensional? Turns out it’s a 5.1 gaming headset. The gadget, an AudioFX Pro 5+1 gaming headset, is a USB headset with a mic that has an integrated subwoofer and integrated 5.1 surround sound decoder. There’s force feedback in there as well if you really like your head to vibrate.
We’re looking forward to seeing this product, because if Ben Heckendorn’s track record of making controllers, handhelds, and Xbox 360 laptops shows one thing, it’s that he knows audio. – Jason Chen

Not content on making Xbox laptops that nobody but him can actually build, Ben Heck is teaming up with eDimensional (see our review of their PS2 SIXAXIS-ish gamepad) to release some kind of mystery product.
So far the page doesn’t say what the product will be, but hopefully Ben will make enough money to buy some shirts that aren’t schwag from trade shows and maybe get a non-combover haircut. You know, standard fare for electrical engineers. We should know—we’re one too. – Jason Chen
