The entry model is the MetalStrike 3D and features 13 programmable buttons. The second model is the MetalStrike Pro and has extra functions like Vibrations-Feedback, handpalm ventilation in two speeds and an adjustable knob. The MetalStrike FF is the same as the Pro but with a complete Force-Feedback. The last model is the Wireless MetalStrike, which doesn't feature the Force-Feedback and ventilation because of the required power. There's no information on pricing and availability yet.
