Steering wheel? (manual, pc, consoles)

Im looking for a steering wheel. It has to be a manual. And Id like it to fit the pc and 360/ps3. The racing chair is too big for me. Just looking for the wheel and pedals

What do you all use?

Those look nice. Seems like the porsche ones and the g25 are the only two worth anything. Now I gotta figure out where to put it. Do you all use gaming chairs or have a small desk to sit in front of the tv? I cant imagine sitting this on my lap.

edit: It looks like the g27 is coming soon next month! It includes a shift indicator.

Does the G25 work with the 360? I was just looking at the Logitec website and it only lists PC and Playstation 3.
