The 4.3-inch capacitive touchscreen device promises WiFi b/g, ethernet, USB connectivity and an SD card slot, together with streaming content through Logitech’s Squeezebox system, but right now the Touch refuses to do anything other than wait for a software update.

The new wheel promises more accurate force feedback effects and keeps with the slick clutch and gated shifter we loved from the G25.
