From the pictures and the descriptions I've seen its a beast of a stick and throttle. All the features of the X45 + many more.

Im seriously considering upgrading to it from my Sidwinder Pro.

More to the point what's the damage? Or, in plain English, how much will it cost me? ??? ;)

I looked in Circuit City and Best Buy and haven't seen the X-52 on the shelves yet. I wonder if its going to be sold on-line only.  ???

Thanks. Looks good but I'm not sure I can afford it right now. I have better things to spend my meagre pension on. LOL

I wonder who came up with this wonderful sentence? Try saying that quickly 10 times. ;)
