Yeah good call that makes it suddenly not cool. Do you have a really cool hack you have done that is better than this mod?

What a tool.

WOW... just wow... So logically, if you hooked 2 wii remotes up pointing at the screen and away from it, you could have a 3D interactive whiteboard type thing?

lol wow you ARE and idiot, you dont take your wiimote apart you imbasile, you hook it up with software, you make the pen YOURSELF, wich may be kindof hard with your mindspan as you make it seem, the pen only costs 5-10 dollars to make.
