:D Not a bad lttle tool for when you're out and about.

The DS Lite wifi range isn't bad either.

Gotta go get my shocks done. Later!

Haha, good work. Didn't know the UK version was out?
How does it look? Does it work well without bugs etc - i.e. pages loading correctly?

Jeez... I'm now back on my desktop.


A proper review later... now I've got a million things to do (including new shocks).

This is the UK version (memory expansion pack included).

Memory expansion pack is designed to fit the ordinary DS body. In my DS lite it sticks out about 1cm.

Broswing's fine... although despite being on broadband, the load-times are similar to 56k (because the poor little processor takes time to figure the page out).

It works best with images off, which can be switched back on when needed.

Text input is much easier than the PSP.


It's not bad... handy for checking email, and looking things up in an emergency, or browsing when bored.

I'll probably get more used to it, for now I'll do most of my browsing on my desktop thanks! :S

Update: I'm posting with it again.

I've been browsing the forum with it for a wee while, and I've even edited my profile with it.


This thing works a lot better if you give it time to load the page fully.

I think it works best in overview mode, where you drag a magnifying glass over an overview of the page (on the bottom screen).

You can then see the full magnification of your selection (a zoom of your choice) on the top screen.

I use the joypad controls to select links.

Colours and images are lovely. I've been to www.forumphoto.co.uk to check out some pics. They look good.

Pages rich in graphics are a pain to navigate around because the poor little processor has to do a lot of work.

I'm yet to find out whether cookies will remember me... I've only just ticked the box.

So far, so good. I can see this thing being useful when i'm out and about.

I'd say a price tag of £20 is more realistic, however, how many games are £20 anyway?

I can't wait until a homebrewer gets their hands on this, and releases something even better. The current limitation is the processors & memory.
