I know what you mean. We seem to have two rather half-hearted "new
Speccy" projects instead of one awesome one. If Elite and the Vega guys
got together, they could build an amazing device between them: a
recreation of the Speccy that actually works as an emulator and can
also operate as a generic keyboard.

But I'm not convinced about what is, when it comes down to it, a £100
controller, and don't really see why the Vega has to have such limited
control options. Okay, so Steve Wilcox is making nice noises about
having his device work with it, but why have two devices at all?
