Stream iTunes to your Wii
The process is a bit lengthy, but it's very step-by-step. Would any readers like to test this out for us? It's kinda early, and there are gentle hobos living in the attic; we don't want to wake them, you see.

Japanese hardware sales, May. 7 - May 13: Office Space edition
Jason: Uh, yeah, I saw it. Thanks, Dave.
David: Good, good. I'll let you get to it, then.
(Jason sighs, and begins to type frantically.)
Alisha: Heyyyyy, Jason, did you see the mem--
Jason: For the love of God, yes. I'm on it.
Alisha: No need to snap, Jason. Sounds like someone has a case of the Fridays.
(Jason mumbles as Alisha walks away. JC and Eric approach.)
JC: I can't believe it. I told those fudgepackers I liked JC's music. Me! I've never despised any form of sensory input as I do those songs.

Brando's WeDock: A $19 box
If you've ever considered yourself a person of class, a member of the gaming bourgeoisie if you will, you'd turn your nose up at the idea of keeping your controllers in a plastic bin or wicker basket. That's the sort of practice you'd rather leave to those of lesser fortune and breeding, right?No, your discriminating tastes demand more sophisticated storage solutions. You require something like Brando's WeDock, a product that does very little for its $19 price tag, but does it quite stylishly. The small locker's clean, white design matches your Nintendo Wii along with any Apple sensibilities you might have. Its one-touch, "springboard" slots fit up to two remotes and nunchucks.
When guests ask if the WeDock recharges your remotes' batteries, you'll laugh in their faces until they bow their heads in shame. Of course it doesn't. Jump past the post break for more product shots.
Help cement a Wii victory at Engadget
Just when you thought you were done with all those pesky 'best of 2006' lists, Engadget offers one you might actually care about -- peripheral of the year. As you might have guessed, the Wii remote is one of the options, and just like Reggie, it seems to be kicking ass and taking names. Voting ends April 15th, and it's just one vote per person, so if you'd like to go help let everyone know that the Wii controller is way cooler than the 360's HD DVD drive, get voting. We sort of feel sorry for the other entrants. Look the Mighty Mouse is cool and all (it's so smooth!), but there's nothing like your Wii remote. Well, except perhaps your remote, but until you're using that to get your Zelda on, we don't want to hear about all that.
Wii busts those block-rockin' beats
That Wii and Mac, they really make such a great couple. As you can see in the above video, when coupled with a Mac and utilizing the Amazing Rolo's Wii Loop Machine, the Wiimote that reinvented how we play games can also reinvent how you get your bad self down. The video really makes it look easy ... perhaps too easy.

The aesthetics of Wii
It's strange how almost every single picture of the Wii fails spectacularly to depict the console's actual size. In reality, the system is ridiculously small with an aesthetic that deftly illustrates how far Nintendo has come in terms of design after they churned out the monstrous looking N64. We're not shallow enough to attach much significance to a console's appearance, but there's something unnervingly attractive about that small white box and its various attachments.
