 Nice concept, falls down in execution, 2008-08-18
It's a nice concept, I originaly purchased this for 3D development before 3D mice were available. It seems like it would be a nice addition to your system, but frankly the software configuration is so draconian and weird that you'll have a hard time using it for anything other than some default functions. While the new driver for Leopard improves things a lot, it would have been better if this device was directly supported by certain of my 3D apps. Basically, it's just turned into a pretty iTunes/SecondLife controller.
 Easy setup, 2007-09-10
The powermate is very easy to setup and it works great, its very easy to get in and set up custom commands for different applications. The only issue I have with it is the push and turn commands seem to be harder to control than just turning.
 powermate limitations, 2007-09-07
IF THE POWERMATE 2.0 SOFTWARE WAS SIMULAR TO SAITEKS SST SOFTWARE SO WE CAN CONTROLL THE KEYSTROKE TIMING THEN I'TS USE CAN BE USABLE FOR ALL KEYBOARD CONTROLL PROGRAMS REGARDLESS. AS OF NOW I CAN USE THEM ONLY FOR ONE PGRM. THE KEY DEPRESSION IS TO BRIEF FOR MY OTHERS.
THANKS, ANDREW CORIATY.....
Broke after 11 months; replacement broken too, 2007-08-01
The hardware went bad after 11 months (the LED failed). Got a replacement under warranty. Either the replacement hardware is broken, or the PowerMate's lame driver software for Mac is to blame. In any case, the PowerMate is in the trash, and Griffin is off my list of decent tech companies.
Cool idea.., 2007-07-01
but not as useful as it might seem.
I found msyelf hardly ever using it. It was mostly just cool to look at.
And if you upgrade to Windows Vista. It becomes a paperweight. Griffin (as of this writing) has yet to offer software for Vista, rendering my PowerMate absolutely useless (unless one needs a cool looking paperweight, that is).
