I created a little video showing the IR pen I built. It is biased for right handed users, with the wiimote assumed to be on the left hand side. You can see it at

Has a removable battery, side tact switch for activating it, and small, neat form factor.
I call it the "elmIR" pen, for obvious reasons.
