Hi Richard,
I chatted to you at the unconference session at Ulearn last week. You have rekindled my interest in making this tool work in a primary classroom!
If you have any more pics or diagrams etc about the wiimote whiteboard that you could share, I would be immensely grateful.
Keep up the good work!
