If you don't want to wait for Sony's official PS3 controller with rumble, you'll be able to pick up Nyko's Zero Wireless Controller soon as it's being shipped today. It's got dual motors for full rumble feedback and you can play up to 25 hours on one charge. The controller uses 2.4GHz tech so no Bluetooth here and of course it features SIXAXIS for motion control. I checked out the controller at CES and it felt pretty good in my hands so I have high hopes for this one.
