Your links dont work as they still refence your shopping cart ID, anyways, you could look at the 3-axis accelerometer MMA7260 and the Bluetooth RF module. It might be the easiest to get started with, Hook up the sensor to your favoruite MCU, connect the Bluetoth RD module to the UART of the MCU and presto! you have your air-mouse ;-) On the PC end, just use a USB Bluetooth dongle and read in the values transmitted from your board and translate them as mouse events.

Cheers
