I have something that would work even better than a Wiimote with GBPVR: The PS3 Blu-ray Bluetooth Remote! It only costs $25, and connects to most any bluetooth dongle. After pairing it, you can enable the remote by pushing any button if your bluetooth dongle is enabled.
There is a new version of GlovePIE that supports the PS3 Blu-Ray Bluetooth Remote; you can get it at: http://carl.kenner.googlepages.com/glovepie_download
Its called "bdremote" in GlovePIE.
You can easily use the GUI or the scripting language to create a custom mapping for all the GBPVR keyboard shortcuts.
In fact, I have written a GlovePIE script that supports the bdremote and GBPVR. If there is enough interest, I would be happy to post it here.
GlovePIE also supports Wiimotes by using bluetooth dongles. There are also available battery-powered sensor bars from Nyko I think. I have one velcroed to the top of my flatscreen monitor, and it works great! Scripting GlovePIE to have a wiimote work like a mouse would be very simple.
The PS3 Blu-Ray Bluetooth remote would be an excellent thing to add to the built-in support of GBPVR.
