I found a press info from Fanatec about their new wheel.. and was WOW'ed.
Something that, if done properly, can easily compete (beat?) G25.

Does anyone heard something more about this wheel?

List of features (from official web site) is really impressive:

Quote:

* Original Porsche 911 Turbo S steering wheel design
* Licensed by Porsche Lizenz- und Handelsgesellschaft mbH
* Authentic metal Porsche logo on wheel
* Hand stitched leather wheel manufactured according to Porsche quality standards
* Compatible with PC and Playstation 3 (all games which support ForceFeedback wheels)

* Turning angle can be adjusted in the wheel to 900°, 360° or 180° or in 1° steps by software

keep everything in place. Integrated nuts allow the strong fixation on a gaming cockpit
* For Playstation: Attachable lap wings and the attachment of the gear sticks to the wheel allow comfortable game
play in the living room without the use of a table
