pacemakers???
Well I work for one of the companies that makes pacemakers, Implantible Cardiac Defibs (ICD) etc.
We just got this letter from our QA dept
" Device Interaction Studies: Obtained a Nintendo Wii Sports system and conducted an evaluation with a KDR933 to answer a specific question for a pediatric Kappa patient. We found no interaction or impact on the IPG; full report being prepared. The Nintendo manual recommends maintaining a 9 distance between the controller and a pacemaker; have several calls into Nintendo to understand the reasoning behind their labeling"
so for now, the Wii-mote does not cause any issues with cardiac pacemakers
