Gaming News: "It's Still HUGE!"

I found a news report today that told of an eBay auction for an Xbox 360 controller two months before it's official release. The controller sold for $91 despite a projected retail price of $39.99 when the Xbox 360 hits store shelves.
The new controllers are modeled after the Xbox Controller S. But, even though it WAS smaller than the controllers that came with the Xbox at release, it was still large and somewhat awkward compared to the controllers of rival game systems. In my mind, it's just going to be a big white version of what we're already used to.
So, obviously, I have to make fun of how big it is.
Now, Ted wouldn't actually bid on such a thing for "bragging rights" like the article suggests. I mean... such a massive example of gaming technology would be better used as a small automobile, maybe a spaceship. Right?
