It was found out recently that the Spring Xbox 360 Dashboard update would bring text messaging via Windows Live Messenger. One would wonder if there is no Wiimote to type out messages, how will it be done? Surely, it cannot be like in the olden times, moving the D-Pad across the tediously long keyboard layout, making you pull your hair out when you can’t find a certain letter?

Well, rumor has it that a keyboard controller attachment will be released in the Summer. The story was leaked onto GameSpot, only to have it removed a few minutes later (hmm…). Luckily the images were still saved onto the caches of several people’s browsers, so everyone can have a look. One more image after the jump.
