The DS Browser

Like anyone would use this. How many places do you go that have wireless internet access but no PCs are around? Sure, there may be the odd hotspot in an coffee shop or whatnot, but most of the time there are PCs in internet cafes, computer labs, your house and pretty much anywhere else you're more than likely to find an 802.11b network.

This is just as useless as the PSP browser.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

Oh, like "POSTING FROM MY PSP~~~" type posts then. Novelty is FUN.

Instead can we get something like a NWC enabled pictochat with voice capabilities like Hunters has? That'd be more entertaining and useful than this. =\

There's nowhere I can't reach.

Agreed, and not only that, but the PSP browser has a much higher resolution, so you don't have to scroll HUGE distances to see the entire page. On a DS, it would require even MORE horizontal and vertical scrolling. Can you imagine how much of a pain in the ass that is?

Imagine running into a :biggermiu: when using the DS to browse. Egad.

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

*shrug* I doubt I'll buy it, but I can see it being a neat idea.

Right, but provided you want to browse the internet for another half hour, wouldn't you just leave the PC on and use that instead of using the DS? It just seems counter productive to switch machines to end up using them both for the same purpose.

Ah, that makes sense then, I suppose. I guess I was wrong, there are some legitimate uses for it.

I still can't imagine it being something you'd want to use or it giving you a pleasant browsing experience, though.

I was speaking idiomatically.
