The first one didn't sell that well, so doubt it. Which is a shame, since it's the best controlled I ever had. If they removed the buttons and put in a joystick (or removed the right Gaben nipple) it would've been perfect.
But so many people have decks now, it would make sense to market a dedicated controller for docked mode. At least that's what I'm desperately hoping for.
