 ;) ... Well, at least not from my computer. Soon I will only be posting here from my new DS Web Browser!

Yeah, they're out now. The only downside is that they are very slow (30 seconds to 2 minutes per page), as well as no flash or java support).

Discuss.

Just buy it at like EBgames or something. If you have a wireless router, then you should be able to use it... it uses the Nintendo Wi-Fi connection just like games do.

I have no clue what any of you are talking about, but I'm pretty sure it's illegal. Just a guess.
Eh... I'm going to stick with my own store-bought DS browser... I will most likely be disappointed when I get it, but it is nice to be able to check things/post on forums practically anywhere in the city without a comp.

It's gotten to the point where nerds can't leave home without the internet. Quite pathetic, really.

I got mine on a trip to Europe during spring break, so I've been using it for a while. I found the novelty of using it faded fast, especially when my computer was sitting just down the hall. It's still a good thing to have on trips when you're in a hotel and want to check your email, forums, etc.

Try using more lightweight sites and themes. Will probably let it load faster.

If you can get close to a router or WiFi USB, you can probably get on a PC. I find it a waste of money for now.

Bad news - it doesn't work. I've been there. The DS Browser uses a special... cartridge, I guess (haven't seen it yet) that's been used to write memory on it, bookmarks and cookies, I assume. And although flash-cartridges are free to write stuff on, it's not yet possible to emulate it so that the ROM of the DSBrowser believes it can write on whatever you use.

And there aren't any homebrew browsers out there that actually work.

Still, the DSBrowser is pretty pointless... sadly. I mean, what's the point? If you use an access point at home, you most likely can use the internets with your PC too. And usually, you have a hard time finding an access point outdoors. The next hotspot from my place is like, 15 minutes away with the bus.

of course you could use a card that has the ability to give the DS the required amount of RAM, or the extension cart for the extra RAM that comes with the browser, but then you'd have the original product anyway >_<

Exactly what I mean. When I'm in invermere bc every weekend and there's something important I need to do, then that's handy.
And when my parents are always checking their email and I want to quickly check mine...

sexy.

'scuse me? (^^^^^)
You've got quite a few posts there, spanky. And rupees. (ps what are ruppees for?) So you just stay in your basement with your internet and don't get out at all. Vitamin D, man.

Hehe, nice. Although I think I would find it a bit useless, considering how slow you stated it was.

I don't have a DS anymore, but who needs to browse the internet on a DS when there's the Wii and the Opera browser?
