Wii Warm Up: Professional Use

It's Powerpoint lawlz

The Wiimote is a fabulous piece of technology, having conceivable uses not only in gaming but also in the clandestine world of business. Beyond the simple Powerpoint presentation wand, any task requiring pixel-precise control from a non-desked location would be greatly aided by the device; we can see it in Wall Street, sports commentary, and even as a replacement for the tried-and-true blackboard in classrooms. But such utility comes at a cost: you're still, you know, holding a game controller.

Would any of you, in a professional environment, abandon the Wiimote's utility due to gaming's current stigma in the world today? Its uses are certainly numerous, but those whispers in the back are enough to unnerve any public speaker. What other professions could benefit from the magic, and can any of you see a time in which holding a Wiimote will seem perfectly normal?
