Even though this is being designed for the XBox, it would be a nice inexpensive animation tool if it could be adapted to computers.

LOL, we were talking last night in chat about how awesome that would be for doing mocaps for Poser ;)  (I jokingly added that it would be just as cool if it would make Poser render faster if I ran)

That would be a great tool, IMHO, if we could get it for computers.

well, they've got the Wii controller working with ordinary PC's via Bluetooth and controlling views in app's like Sketchup and Autodesk products...

I would expect either Microsoft or hackers would port the capability to PCs. People have already hacked the WII controller to work with PCs that have Bluetooth.

I haven't heard about of anybody using a WII controller in Poser as a 3D mouse, but it ought to be possible considering that P7 works with the three dimensional movement on the Space Navigator. It would probably take some fine tuning to regulate how movement of the controller corresponds to movement in Poser. It doesn't sound like an insurmountable problem.
