Logitech Steering Wheel + PS3?

OK gents-

I was about to pull a HUGE trigger and get the logitech G25 steering wheel for the PS3, but I am disturbed by some conflicting information that I hope you smart folks can sort out....

DOES the PS3 support force-feedback, or are they in some kind of lawsuit (which is why the controllers don't vibrate anymore)?

DOES Gran Turismo 4 work with that wheel?

Does GT Prologue work with the clutch?

Is this wheel really really worth it?

I need something to practice on. More on that later.

Force Feedback has shown up as functional in 3rd party titles.

Force Feedback is a fairly broad term.

I believe the crux of the Immersion patent infringement dealt mainly with the rumble/vibration function which is a part of Force Feedback but not all of it.

That sucks... I wanted it to use with GT4 so I could practice the Nurburgring, but there isn't much point if its not going to give any feedback.

Oh well, back to the controller

GT4 and GTHD FFB both work with the G25 (or 911) wheel
