Well, I watched this video from the other thread and decided I had to try it.

I ordered a blue tooth dongle that you plug into a USB port and enables the PC to talk to any Blue Tooth device.  The Wiimote is just another BlueTooth device.  Then I downloaded all of the software from the guy's website.  Ass soon as the adapter comes in, I will try to find time to play with it.  Today is my last day of work until the 2nd of January though, so I won't get to try it until then.

I will keep this thread updated as I progress.

I got my blue tooth dongle plugged in today.  Installed all the software, then went about making an IR pen for the Wii Touch Screen.

It was quite easy, as I work at a place where there are electronic parts everywhere.  I got it all rigged up on my desk and fired it up and it works!

It is actually pretty dang neat.  Now I have it at home and I am coming uyp with some ideas how it could be used.  I am thinking a monitor embedded in my coffee table and using the touch abilities to view photos, browse the web, etc.
