Final Fantasy XI on a PC with a gamepad

Does anybody play the Final Fantasy XI on a PC with a gamepad? It is in my mind for past several days. The game is great, and I play it with keyboard and muse set tp. But I want to know if it is possible to play it with gamepad. If you can do that, FF XI is going to be my favorite game for a long time. Come on, players, let me hear your opinion and experiences.

I want to join you with that “request”, if I can call it like that. I played the game on a console, and it was just a brilliant experience. So, I want to take that experience on a PC, but I do not know if it can be done. I have still not obtained the game, but I will soon do that. Before that, I also need to know if you can use gamepad while playing the Final Fantasy XI. I just cannot express my excitement with words. The game is the best of them all.
