This thing is versatile as well.

While Steam is open, you can use it to navigate your computer as a mouse.

I haven't used my mouse all day, I can right click, left click, scroll and middle mouse click all by using this wireless controller. It's fantastic. I can't wait til they update it so that we can use the Steam on screen keyboard outside of games as well, then it'll replace both my mouse AND my keyboard.
