Wow. Recharging without removing the jackets. That is what I have been waiting for.

My two young kids play the Wii, and the wiimotes have gone flying across the room a couple of times. The jackets stay. This is a perfect charger for me.

Too bad it is sooooo expensive. When it drops to $25, I am in.

looks good, just a shame it probably won't work with the MotionPlus plugged into the bottom - which has its own jacket and will, more than likely, become the de facto standard for all new ninty games...

They also have one that charges four at a time, but without the jackets. Which is poor if your kids tend to throw 'em, BUT at least you can leave the *wriststraps* on, which was NOT the case for the current best 4-way charger I could find.

Friggin' ridiculous, I don't know how they let that nonsense get off the drawing board.
