Chris, I think you're absolutely right about it being used by lots of different types of programs as a way to get people up and moving. I know lots of the local nursing homes have Wii's and use them regularly. My company provides vocational and residential support services to people with disabilities and we have one in our workshop and I think every residential site has one now. The guys especially love the boxing one and some of them really do get a good workout with it. We've bought the exercise module for one house, but I haven't seen it in action yet. I certainly didn't mean to poo-poo it at all.
Jean
