What do you mean by "Of course, they're using the term "wireless" liberally here" mean? That being said I love how it says it picks up the signal from the wiimote, as thought the wiimote actually sends one(yes, yes, I know the wiimote DOES send a signal but it sends it to the wii, not to the sensor bar :P)]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Mark]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Dec 5th 2007 3:35AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on The $4 Wireless Sensor Bar: for that special Wii in your life]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2007/12/05/the-4-wireless-sensor-bar-for-that-special-wii-in-your-life/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2007/12/05/the-4-wireless-sensor-bar-for-that-special-wii-in-your-life/</guid><description><![CDATA[All you need are 4 (6?) LED lights... there is nothing special about the sensor bar... really... as long as the remote can 'see' 2 sets of IR-emitting sources of light you are more than OK...<br><br>The only nice thing about this is that it doesn't look like crap (aka it has a reasonable plastic housing.) Since the average DIYer doesn't have the ability to mold plastic I think $4 is a pretty good price point.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Nick Catalano]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Dec 5th 2007 6:13AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on The $4 Wireless Sensor Bar: for that special Wii in your life]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2007/12/05/the-4-wireless-sensor-bar-for-that-special-wii-in-your-life/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2007/12/05/the-4-wireless-sensor-bar-for-that-special-wii-in-your-life/</guid><description><![CDATA[I actually did the 2 candles thing over Thanksgiving when I took my Wii with me to my in-law's house but foolishly forgot the sensor bar.
