Looks like a very nice fan controller for a decent price I would love to hear from anyone who's used one of these. I might throw one of these in the new box to.

Judging from the two angled pics, the readable horizontal view angle doesn't look too spectacular.

to be honest the left panel of info showing date/time could be replaced by something much more useful. like a card reader or even a graphical equiliser, or lots and lots of USBs, beautiful USBs (cackles)
