CAGiversary!

It looks like Datel managed to make the first unlicensed wireless controller for the Xbox360 that doesn't require any USB-dongle and will just sync directly with the Xbox360 wireless system itself. Keep in mind the wireless technology MS uses for controllers isn't any industry standard like Bluetooth or so, but a proprietary Xbox360 technology - created so only MS and its official licensed partners (like Madcatz etc - who have to pay licensing fees) could sell wireless controllers. The Redmond team is probably not gonna like it, but Datel and MS are already strangled into several lawsuits (incl. one about Datel's Wildfire1 wired 360 controller), so let's see where this goes ...


The WildFire2 controller for Xbox 360 faithfully recreates all of the functionality of the original Xbox 360 controller, including vibration feedback and full analogue input.
In addition, the WildFire2 controller enhances your gaming with a programmable Turbo Rapid Fire function and new ergonomic design

Features:
* Direct Sync with Xbox 360
* No cord or dongles required
* Programmable Turbo Rapid Fire
* Integrated headset port for Xbox Live play
* Dual rumble motors
* Truly ergonomic shape fits perfectly in your hands
* Fully compatible with Xbox 360
* Blue glowing grips showing when Turbo Rapid Fire is enabled
* Compatibility Warranty
* Requires 2 x AA batteries (not included)

I'd be a little concerned about Microsoft creating a patch that would render this unusable. I'm not sure if that's possible or not.

I believe it could be since a few months back closer to a year maybe, MS had a update that block the use of Datel's memory cards on the Xbox360.

This.

And it's possible. Also probable.
 
The TurboFire 2 Wireless is in stores... if you download the software from Codejunkies.com you can update the firmware and completely customize the controller.
