Quick question about wireless controllers on Xbox

[Sniper82]

Can I use 2 wireless controllers at the same time and them different brands? Have a Logitech now and was offered a Hip Gear for $20 shipped.

Got 16 rechargable batteries so I figured what the heck get another one.

I have the logitech cordless precision wireless. It was recently released and costs $49.99.

IGN has a pretty thorough review of it here:

Personally, I really like it. But one thing to keep in mind about these 3rd party controllers is that their construction just doesn't match up to the Microsofy made controllers.

My only gripe about this controller is that it requires me to press buttons a little harder than with the S. This pertains mainly to the X, Y, A, B, white, and black buttons. Every once in a while it seems like the button doesn't respond unless I press it all the way down. I've never had this problem with the S, but I think part of this is related to the way the controller curves. I have to hold it a little different from the S. I haven't heard anyone else mention this though. It's a very minor problem but I thought I'd mention it anyway.

Hip Gear is also coming out with a wireless controller that'll have the xbox live headset built in. It looks promising but I didn't want to wait until October:

hmm that's a good question.....i don't see why not, but I'm not 100% sure on that since I haven't tried it myself.
