Brian,  this is awesome, thanks for sharing. It seems I have to continually delete and repair my wiimote after it is been turned off.  Is this the standard behavior? I am running Vista Ulimate with the build in blue tooth stack.  Any ideas????

I did try it and it did work fine on a PC, but not on a Windows Mobile device.

Oh well, I will have to drill down into how to code that part then.

@Jay, auto-pairing is not supported by the Wiimote.

@NH, there is no WinMo support as WinMo lacks an HID layer.

@Anas, no stable WM+ version yet

Hey Brian, great job!

What should I do when the wiimote is disconnected by error? I mean, if the application is running and I unplug the bluetooth adapter. It shows me a Windows error. How Can I control this event?

Thanks!!
