I dunno man, but wired PS2-style gamepads are a dime a dozen.

I have a Logitech Wingman cordless, but if I had to do it over, I'd get a wireless XBox 360 controller + adapter.

Wouldnt be wireless and have the figured out the rumble in it yet? Its been awhile and last I saw it was either the rumble or the sticks werent working or damnit something wasnt working right with the universal driver.

But as you mentioned and I have 2 of them the Logitech Wingman wireless is the best wireless you can buy and has pretty much the same button layout as a PS controller plus 2 extra buttons (has the r1 r2 and l1 l2 buttons and the ones in the middle of the analog sticks as well when you push down on them)

Works great with my PS emulator.

I have a Saitek P3000, feels a little bit plasticy, as in it's not as solid as I'd like, but it works well. Then only problem I have is the batteries they use seem to randomly die/andor fall apart. You can just email them and they'll send you new packs. Or you can order about 10oem cells for $7-8 and put them in the cartidges. Overall, I'm satisfied with it though. I think it's supposed to work up to 10m, all I've tried is across my room, 15ish feet.

Oh yeah, looks like the wireless adapter for PCs doesn't come out until Christmastime.

This one looks pretty good and has good reviews:
