Wayward Wiimotes reined in

Playing with the Nintendo Wii often elicits more excitement than usual, and sometimes the flailing of arms could result in a flying Wiimote embedding itself into the TV’s display or hit a person in the eye by accident. Elecom has taken steps to remedy this by offering a silicon protective skin for the Wiimote that comes with a rubbery surface for greater grip (especially those with sweaty palms), while a handle is located behind to prevent the Wiimote from taking flight. Do you think this is a better idea than using the included wrist straps that come with each Wiimote?
