Which means that if your neighbor decides to microwave a burrito while you're gaming, packets might get dropped, or arrive at the wrong time, and your sound goes to hell.<br><br>I think the 'mote should have had a multi-KB (maybe even multi-MB) buffer, and an easy way to transmit entire multi-second sound effects ahead of time, so that, for example, the Zelda "ching" sound effect from a sword swing (or whatever) can be sent in one go, then you could tell the 'mote to "Play Sound #37" or some such.  Would have made a lot more sense.  At the very least, the 'mote could have offered the A2DP profile as a service...]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[James]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Dec 20th 2006 1:32PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Nintendo's Wiimote gets dissected, inspected]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2006/12/20/nintendos-wiimote-gets-dissected-inspected/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2006/12/20/nintendos-wiimote-gets-dissected-inspected/</guid><description><![CDATA[I love how you guys always include how "dangerous" the remote is.<br><br>Did you read that?
