Well, I have ordered the arduinos, but should get to them in about a week. I think I'll go with one of these:

hmm, You want to read out some analog Voltage between 0 and 5 Volts and then takes this value out with a Midi Pitch Bend Message? Great Idea... I am very interessted in this patch... In 2 Weeks I will to a workshop. Ten i will discuss these Idea... If anyone hat such an Arduino - Patch, i ´m very interessted to get these!1

Nice idea, I didn't realize that. So I went and checked the MIDI 1.0
implementation chart[1] its a cool trick, it gives another byte of information apparently as stated here[2]:
Pitch Bend MSB + LSB
Always learning...thanks :)

Or you can use an arduino and send midi messages through pitch-bend or one of those high-res midi messages...

But if you want to built an "pd-independent" device, you can use OSC in arduino - although much harder than simply reading values with pduino - some guys already posted code for sending OSC messages from arduino devices [1], so then you can plug it to whatever you want: pd, ardour, osc-to-midi apps, processing, supercollider :D

A gamepad would definitely be LESS precise as each potentiometer will map data between 0 and 255. But i've never found this to be a problem.
