I found that I couldn't get the version on this site to work (Mac OS 10.4.11 on Intel MacBook Pro) which was version 0.5, so this may help others as well. If there was a free app similar to remote buddy that would be great. Also, I have some issues concerning the default horizontal plane DarwiinRemote uses (perhaps it aligns with my screen?) but it was nice that both IR and Bluetooth were workable. If the joystick and the face buttons on my labtop worked as interface, especially as a gamepad in terms of the joystick that would make this a more complete piece of software. Otherwise very neat. P.S. Having the Joystick as mouse would be nice as well, I have some difficulties with the Wii Remote's pointer sensitivity.

There is no joystick functions when adding a "Classic Controller" to the Wii Remote. Also "down" and "right" don't seem to work on the CC.
