Has anyone stopped to consider just how a wireless nunchuck attachment would work? The PS3 as I recall can connect with up to 7 bluetooth enabled assessories. If we have a motion controller and wireless nunchuck each take up one of those slots than we can only have a maximum combination of 3 remote/nunchuck players playing any game at once with one slot left over for an additional DualShock 3/Motion Controller/Wireless Headset.

It would probably be much more cost effective for Sony to simply attach the two with a cable the way that Nintendo does and the lower price could drive more sales of the assessory as well.

I guess that if they are able to upgrade hardware such as hdmi or blue-ray through firmware they should be able to also do it with their bluetooth hardware. Its only a guess though, but are you sure theres in fact a rule of 7 bluetooth accessories maximum?

Could easily just use a USB wireless dongle for it like they do with RB/GH (not sure which, Ill have to check my guitar) as to not take up any BT slots. 

As for upping the total number of BT, I believe that can be done through Firmware.  We had a similar problem with something here at work and the manufactorer fixed the total number of connections through it via firmware.
