I was recently wondering why it is that i'm still more comfortable with my mouse than with the wiimote, and i think the answer is that the mouse is stable, it doesn't wobble quite like my arm does with the wiimote.

So, I am curious, would adding a few gyroscopes inside the wiimote (or duct taped to the bottom of it) make it more stable, and therefore easier to precisely control?

Here's what i'm thinking.  Take 2 small motors, attach disc's to them, and mount them beneath the wiimote.  Spin one clockwise and the other counterclockwise, and see if the inertia is enough to help with accuracy.
