--- Quote from: orion on February 10, 2009, 03:57:26 pm ---I don't think there would be a better fit for what you want to do out there. I did want to add one thing about the Gyration products in general. If you compare them to a Wii remote, they are much more accurate with pointing (using it as a mouse) They really have the technology down pat. --- End quote --- I'm never going to get that kinda range with a Wii remote am I? I am talking about the non-line of site range. In other words I would like to be able to control my music volume not being in the same room and from the sound of it, the Gyration will handle that just well. |

What is the range or does a lot of that depends on the receiver as well? Maybe I will give the Wii Remote a try, I have two of them but I do not have any blue tooth on my PC (yet). ;D |

Ya know I was thinking... This does have the display play list on it and that is a nice feature, also there would not be all those hoops to jump through to get it to work either. I mean I have not tried the Wii remote but it looks to be a pretty lenghty write up! Not saying it is not worth the time or the effort but this product looks to be very solid. |

Not the IR part that controls external components obviously. --- Quote from: Visitor Q on February 11, 2009, 09:12:56 am ---Ya know I was thinking...
