But GPS is irrelevant to PaulHoule's statement about the Wiimote - the wiimote doesn't contain a GPS receiver.

The price difference between a Wiimote and an OxTS RT3000 is because a high-precision sensors and super-low-noise electronics are difficult.

ITAR doesn't stop you and me from buying an RT3000 - the thing stopping us is the fact it costs as much as a midrange car.
