Pelican wireless network adapter any good?

For the 360. Im buying a gift for a friend and I dont really want to buy the $100 MS one--Unless thats the only one that works.

Does the pelican one work ok? The BB employee swore it even worked at faster speeds.

Hmmm. Interesting. I didn't even know about this new adapter. What's even better about it is the fact that it's Ethernet based instead of USB based -- therefore, it might work on 20gb PS3s as well.

Sorry I can't help with more info, Save Ferris.

Is the Pelican/MadCatz _______________ any good?

The answer to this question is always no.

Au contraire, the cymbal expansion for the Rock Band 2 drums are really good.

You can most likely easily find a used official one at Gamestop for $69.99 prior to any coupons or discounts. There is always at least a 10% discount coupon to be had and if you have an edge card then 20% total so it runs ~$56 + tax.

Hey All, I got a $20 gift card to GAME STOP, Would you recommend the USED wireless 360 adapter(69.99) or a brand new Pelican adapter(69.99) Either one would come out to 49.99 after the $20 gift card.....
Thx in advanced

Does anyone make one of these with 4 ports? I know Buffalo used to have one, but they had to stop selling them because of patent infringement.
