Microsoft was showing TV at ECTS the whole time and i haven't been able to
find a Fury3 somewhere but i did't looked seriously since so many more 
interesting games were showed by other companies. Microsoft was
advertising
their "brand new, revolutionary" joystick with this Fury3 aka TV. So maybe
they
bought the rights to a commercial TV for the thing - i do not know.
And honestly: i do not care. There were other cool joysticks and hardware
shown,
Microsoft just uses more steam to make their products look more promising.
Ocean's F-16(?)-cockpits and Thrustmaster all along where you could
play TFX:EF2000 was WAY cooler.
