Well, a relatively high-level of mind control has been achieved with several paraplegic patients, though I think that may require a bit more of an invasive brain link. Nevertheless, they're able to accurately control an on-screen mouse pointer. I believe "clicking" is achieved either through eye blinks or just keeping the pointer on a selection for a certain amount of time. Similarly, amputees are able to control "robotic" limbs with nerve links and "thinking" about using the arm/hand like their original appendage. Obviously the key with both of those technologies is to capture specific brain waves without having to "jack in" directly and invasively. The more brain wave impressions a device is able to capture, I imagine the more sophisticated the options could be, all the way up to what one could achieve with a mouse and full keyboard.

I'm still not sold on mind control at the moment as anything more than another gimmick or specialty control, like a light gun, dance pad or video camera.
