Fellow PyMOLers,

A couple projects were recently brought to my attention that sound really 
interesting.  They're essentially new ways to interface with PyMOL.

First, development has started for the Nintendo Wii remote to control & 
manipulate molecules.  I got a chance to try it out and it was very cool.  
It's new code, but really neat to play around with.  When do we get Guitar 
Hero PyMOL?  :-)  Hehe.

Next, from the same lab, they've also developed a novel IR-headset that 
orients the PyMOL scene towards the user.  As you walk around the room, the 
molecule reorients itself to follow you.  That's cool!  They even have a 
video.  The PyMOLWiki link is --

I also hear that the code will be available soon.
