computing, is previewing a new black-colored version of the award-winning

The black Falcon, which has an estimated MSRP of $199.99, and the
Pistol Grip, with a $19.99 estimated MSRP, are expected to be in stores in
time for Father's Day 2008.
The Novint Falcon was first introduced in 2007 as part of a Limited
Edition Bundle. A standard edition Novint Falcon will be released later
this year and will be available in both white and black. The controller,
which replaces a mouse or joystick, lets players feel game actions,
objects, environments and force feedback in Novint-enabled games.
With mods for best-selling games like Half-Life(R) 2, Half-Life(R) 2:
Episode One, and Quake 4, and many other action titles in development, the
Pistol Grip was designed primarily for First Person Shooter (FPS) games.
Players feel realistic weapon recoil, enemy attacks and game action and
dynamics using the Falcon, which is further enhanced with the new Novint
Grip.
"We're adding these new products in response to customer demand," said
Tom Anderson, Novint's CEO. "The black Falcon gives our customers an edgier
aesthetic option. The Pistol Grip is truly a must have accessory that is
unparalleled for FPS gaming. I believe that many users will want to
purchase a Falcon just to play FPS games with the Pistol Grip."
The Novint Falcon ($189.99 MSRP) is currently available nationwide at
Tiger Direct, Fry's Electronics, J & R Music, CompUSA.com, CircuitCity.com,
Amazon.com and Novintfalcon.com.
