Ive got GC Linux running on mine with a wireless keyboard (ps/2 kbd -> controller port adapter), booting from an SD card.

Can you elaborate?  Got any links besides GC-specific ones?

Not sure what you mean? The Wii is pretty much an overclocked GC with Bluetooth and Wi-Fi, you can just plug pretty much any PS/2 keyboard into it using one of these.

Works a treat   I predict battery life of around 37 hrs continuous use, runs off AAs.  Cost me about £2.70.

Sure I could spray it silver and put red plastic over the LEDs/spunk more money on a case that i didnt find in a drawer, but why bother?  It does the job, and its not like I notice it under my 10 foot glowing wall  

I wasnt doing it for the aesthetics, as its in a drawer when its not being used and invisible once its sat below the projector image.

Anyone with a projector will know what a PITA the stock sensor bar is, I had to sit my Wii on a coffee table in the middle of the room with cables running at waist height to opposite walls for sensor bar/projector linkage.  This is much better  I could have done the 2 candles trick, but this is somewhat more reliable.

BTW if anyones seen the retail wireless sensor bar that sells for about £20, dont be fooled.  Its 4 leds pushed through some cable trunking, with a 9v battery stuck in.  Ã‚£3 in parts.  And it would be appaling for large rooms because it doesnt have the FOV of mine

eh?  The idea is to have two point sources so the remote can triangulate its position.  I made mine in two seperate boxes so I could vary the spacing and hence adjust its sensetivity to movements in the axis out of the screen.  This meant I could make it more suitable for a projector-size picture and the subsequently larger distance from the screen to the player.  

Some  monkeyball minigames for example require you to sit within a couple of metres of the screen in order to get a decent response when moving the remote closer and further away from the screen.  I can still sit on the sofa at the other side of the room, I just adjust the spacing between the UV sources to compensate

I thought amazon still have them.

The only answer I can get from various game stores is "weve sold out and we dont know when we are getting any in." Rather frustrating.
