This is why the Sony wand is better for full out motion controls than wiimote alone (and the same in accuracy to Wiimote+Wii motion plus, but with the advantage of not needing to callibrate it) but not as accurate as a pointer because it has to use the motion sensing more to figure out it's angle.

This is speculation until we get our hands on it. Hardware-wise, as you said, it uses gyroscopes+accelerometers just like WM+, so it's potentially extremely accurate with angles.

Software-wise, it all depends on how they want to convert translations/rotations into cursor movements. The tech demo with the guy writing up his name seemed to show excellent controls, he even remarks that it's easier to control a cursor using translations than rotations (something on the lines of: it's hard to write your name with an 8' pencil).
