    I don't know if any of you guys have seen this but I just stumbled across this site and it basicly lets you register your Wii to where you are in the world using Google Earth.

    Thought it was a pretty good idea.

    What so they are going to break into one of on average about 8 houses to get hold of a single Wii, unlikely I think.

    Postcodes don't narrow down that much and ZIP codes are pretty much the same, not sure about the other release countrys.
