That was my first thought as well, but according to this first look from IGN, it's surprisingly comfortable: http://wii.ign.com/articles/117/1173582p1.html

When I first saw the XBox controller, I thought it would be uncomfortable too, but it's probably the best one out there right now.

As far as I can tell, the controller is just a controller and not a stand-alone system of its own, so you'll still have to be within range of the main system to use it. Because of that, they don't need to worry about making the controller something you can comfortably carry around in your pocket or bag like an iPad, DS, or PSP, so they can give it a more ergonomic grip and not worry about it being too bulky or awkward to carry.
