Mad Catz takes aim at Microsoft with its own Wireless-N Gaming Adapter

Well, go figure. It seems like some companies see Microsoft’s new and pricey Wireless N adapter for the Xbox 360 as a prime candidate for some competition. One of the first out of the gate is Mad Catz, which has just released its new Wireless-N Gaming Adapter that packs a slightly more reasonable MSRP of $80 (twenty bucks less than Mircosoft’s), and should no doubt see even bigger discounts than the official Microsoft option. As you may have already guessed, however, this one is actually just a standard wireless bridge aimed at the gamer crowd, which just so happens to mean it’ll also work just fine with the PlayStation 3 if you’re looking to step-up to 802.11n or take advantage of the forthcoming Adhocparty service.
