Jeff. I love your project (but I believe I may have posted something like that on your website.)
Have you taken a look at what I am fooling around with? (fkeel.blogspot.com)
Once my overall design is finished (and I still have a far way to go) I will take a closer look at what you came up with and possibly extend my setup to incorporate your glove.
Eventually (time-wise this will be sometime next year, when I'm writing my Bachelor thesis) I hope to use this a an input device of a context aware, wearable computing device... 
I love the fact that lots of high-tech stuff has moved to outside of MIT Media-Lab and similar places into the garage workshop of various tinkerers...
