It doubles as a Steam controller, when running Steam in Big Picture mode on a nice big widescreen TV. Read the article again. If you are not aware of Steam Big Picture mode, then go do some reading, as there is plenty of potential in this and I am sure there will be a market.

Steam Big Picture Mode Now Live
Access Steam from your TV.
After a beta earlier this year, Valve has officially launched Steam’s Big Picture Mode. Available now, Big Picture Mode allows players to access Steam via their television, supporting controllers in addition to keyboard and mouse controls. Big Picture Mode allows players to access all of their existing games, including cloud files, Steam Workshop content, account information and preferences.
Big Picture is accessible by connecting a PC or Mac to a TV. The new mode is available worldwide in languages including German, French, Russian, Korean and Portuguese and offers a new web browser designed specifically for use with televisions and game controllers.
The browser is accessible from anywhere within Big Picture, including while playing games. According to Valve, the browser “supports Big Picture's new method of typing with a gamepad, which is useful for entering URLs, filling out forms, chatting, and other functions.”
To celebrate the launch, Valve has also put more than 30 games on sale for 75% until December 10th. For more on Big Picture, visit Valve’s official site.
