any progress on making this work in Usine?

After stumbling across this: http://www.brandmaier.de/miidii/

I'm seriously considering getting a wiimote, a balance board and the motionplus

not yet but you can live without the motion plus. just a matter of precision but not a real problem.

i can partly confirm this:
the experience of the wii module in Usine is already worth the purchase of a wiimote.
yet i didnt manage to build an application to make the wiimote really useful. for binary controls (wii is up/down, left/right, etc.) its well ok. for gradual changes (volume, filter cutoff, effects mix, etc.) the standard wiimote doesnt match faders/knobs by any means..
my hope is that the motionplus overcomes this. of course it will be never as good as the Buchla lightning controller (2000$)

i cant speak for the balance bord. would love to hear if u can do something serious with this (though having fun a few times wouldnt be a bad purpose of course!)
