You've gotta love how they made a Wiimote inside an old electric razor ;)

The thing I'm most impressed with is the GSM control and data streaming - that's something I've been wanting to try for a long time. Having no range limitation ( :-)...except for dropped calls) would be amazing.

These things are pretty remarkable! I'm impressed when (about halfway through) the guy starts pushing one of them around and it auto-corrects very well.
