New Opera Widget for the Internet Channel

I have a new widget out that is compatible with the Wii. It can be found here. The widget demonstrates some of the features of the Wii Opera SDK so that developers can see what is possible to add into their Internet Channel games. The widget is a scaled down version of the General Wii Remote Demo at http://wiioperasdk.com/.
It auto-detects if the user if on a computer or a Wii and determines if a Wii Remote is facing the screen or not. It then displays positional and button press data. The Wii Opera SDK can also read Nunchuk button presses, but the Internet Channel does not support the Nunchuk for the primary Wii Remote, so that detection has been dropped.
I have two more widgets available, but I'm waiting on Opera to allow Wii usage for them. They can be found here (3D Mesh Demo) and here (Raycasting demo).
