I believe the XIM3 article is about a very notable product. It is the first of its type to provide completely accurate game play and is allowed by microsoft. It also incorporates a technology of "smart translators" which is able to create an exact 1v1 ration between mouse movement and controller movement. The statement that it has a "few trivial mentions" is an understatement. It is being mentioned all over the web and popularity is increasing by the minute. The current community on the forum is 8471 users . . . That is just on the developers forum. I believe this is more than a non-notable product.[[User:Webb.joshua|Webb.joshua]] ([[User talk:Webb.joshua|talk]]) 17:48, 23 February 2011 (UTC) |

:OK, what you need, then, is to find reliable sources that demonstrate such notability - sources from independent third parties that discuss the product with more than just a passing mention. Have a look at [[WP:N]] to understand what notability means in a Wikipedia context, and [[WP:RS]] to learn about the kinds of sources you need. -- [[User:Boing! said Zebedee|Boing! said Zebedee]] ([[User talk:Boing! said Zebedee|talk]]) 17:52, 23 February 2011 (UTC) |

Contested PROD. Article about a non-notable product. The article has had some problems with spam and copyright violations, but those issues can be solved with rewriting; what can't be solved as easily is the issue of notability. A search for sources yields only primary sources/press releases and a few trivial mentions in tech blogs. If anybody finds more in the way of significant coverage in reliable sources, it should be kept, otherwise deleted until it becomes notable. bonadea contributions talk 17:28, 23 February 2011 (UTC)
