Dakotah, I do agree that some integration between the See Munkey and the Wii mote might be possible in the future, but at the moment I have no idea what that would even entail. Since it sounds like it would be very cool, the idea might grab the attention of someone who knows more about how the Wii works.
The Braille display is something I will definitely be working on again! :D I've poured a ton of time and effort into several different designs, and the last one went so far that I was already contacting places to manufacture the parts for it. At the very end they changed the cost estimate for building the parts, and the new price was 20 times what I had originally been told! Yikes! That killed that designed right there on the spot since it would have cost more in parts than I wanted to sell the finished device for. I'll figure something out eventually, I just need to once again start over. Thanks man. :) I do have a large number of interests, but I think that keeps more options open whenever I find myself bored and in need of something to do.
