A wireless sensor bar with something extra (a wire)
The 2Way Sensor Bar can operate on 4 AA batteries when wireless play is desired, or it can be powered by the Wii's (or any) USB connection. Too bad it doesn't have internal batteries that could be charged over USB, or it would be perfect.
Unfortunately, the unobtrusive design of the original sensor bar has been replaced with a Wii-imitation white slab with some lights on it. We don't really mind the clock, because, hey, if you've got a thing sitting on top of your TV, it might as well make itself useful.

I would easily purchase this sensor bar. I dislike the original sensor bars appearance and easily breakable cable.

This would be really handy for using my Wiimote on a PC. I might get it if it comes stateside.

The original Wii sensor's cable broke on accident when I my cat was playing with it. He bit through the cable, but currently I've been using a Gamestop wireless which is acceptable for the time being.
My question is this, can this item be purchased in the United States or imported?
