The dedicated pedals are, indeed, expensive. You have to remember it's a relatively small target market and the high price is needed to cover the cost of R&D and making a profit. That said, I see you can now buy one for a little over 60 euros, so they are getting cheaper.

I tried the hacked mouse mouse/keyboard route for a while but was plagued with timeout problems and I never found a way to overcome them.

In the end, I went for the EZ-Key module and built my own pedal set, details of the construction are in this post - http://zubersoft.com/mobilesheets/forum/...p?tid=2254 . This has proved extremely reliable in use.
