Nintendo Wii and projectors?

I read that you have to have the sensor bar below the screen, and point at the sensor bar as the basis of using the wii remote. Is that right? When you are playing with a 100" screen, doesn't that mean that we're going to be pointing at basically near the floor, and using that as a reference to move the cursor around the whole screen. I would have thought that would feel unnatural.

Does anyone know who it would be for us projector users? Anyone seen a Wii working well with a large projector screen?

I plan on using mine with a projector. As far as I know the size of the screen won't make a difference - the wiimote doesn't act as a pointer.
