Nope.  DarwiinRemote doesn't use the HID Manager because although the
Wiimote reports itself as a HID compliant joystick it is not.  This
sets up a fight between OS X's HID Manager and the way DarwiinRemote
syncs.  About 50% of the time the HID Manager grabs the device and the
other half DarwiinRemote gets it.

I'd love to see someone write a "real" device driver for the Wiimote,
but it is beyond the skills of the DarwiinRemote team.
