Wiimote Whiteboard
This program allows you to use the Wii Remote (Wiimote) to turn any surface into a Low-Cost Interactive Whiteboard. It is based on Johnny Lee's original WiimoteWhiteboard program that is written in C# and available for Windows only. The program uses Java to allow for (some) platform-independence. There is also a Mac-only version and this is, up to my knowledge, currently the only such program for the Mac.
