Xbox owners: What non-OEM accessories have you bought for your system?

As to feel, they feel as solid as the OEM in your hands. The analog sticks aren't quite as tight-feeling which means a little less control if you're big on precision. It's nothing usable in my books, though. Likewise the two analog triggers on the controller's rear have a shorter throw than the OEM, meaning less degrees of accuracy but also a tendency to not tire your fingers out as much. Anyone who's played PGR2 on the default control scheme knows what I'm talking about here. 😛

They've also got a bunch of other interesting products on their website...namely, the XB-Comm Wireless Controller & Headset. 30 foot range, 50 hours of playtime on AA batteries...looks like a real winner. Has anyone got experience with this, or any other interesting Xbox accessories?
 
Only OEM for me, I prefer the big controllers (though MS doesn't make them any more 🙁 ). I got burned on some cheap-ass OEM controllers I bought for the N64 and swore I'd buy only OEM from there on in.
