Google, with regards to the hardware, please do not avoid your WEEE compliance obligations as a manufacturer and distributor of electronic equipment to behave responsibly with regards to their disposal. I'd also like to vote (like many others) for Google considering spending a bit of dev time to make controllers work with Bluetooth so they can be repurposed and used as more than just wired HID controllers, provided there's no technical limitation in doing so. Don't get me wrong, HID is still at least something, but lets not miss this opportunity to repurpose them before people start throwing them away. I hate the thought of potentially millions of these devices being thrown away and ending up in landfill. Also, there must be some remaining store stock that's just going to get thrown away. It would make sense to pay a few developers a small amount to get these more broadly usable, as they are good controllers. Then people can use them, sell them on ebay, or give them to friends/relatives who have consoles that can make use of them. They could possibly even sell off the remaining stock cheaply as general use controllers, but at the very least they should be providing free post options to send them to regional recycling centres, where they can be recycled.
