There are 6 in my comms room right now - senior management bought em for their kids, with what looks like every release game.

I may rent a Wii from Blockbuster to check it  out. Zelda and sports sound great.  Mind,  I havent played  Zelda in 10+  years, stopping only to yell at my roommate, "take it away,  take it away!!!!"

Tried that opera browser this morning, quite a smart bit of kit indeed, those of you worried that the res isnt high enough to display a page properly, fear not, it works very smartly

I cant seem to connect, it just sits on the connecting screen for the wii software channel

Im posting using the browser. It is really easy to use and it actually loads pages faster than the pc version of Opera.

The internet channel is poo. My wii is going through a projector and text on bbc, the forums etc is very very difficult to make out.

Im running mine on a 32" lcd tv and the text on forums and bbc site is really easy to make out as long as you zoom in

Yeah ok, just found the zoom button :>

Switching the render mode with the 2 button works well on some websites too

Aye, use the + button to zoom in. Holding it zooms in further however to zoom in further you have to zoom out first. Also it is a shame it doesnt remember zoom level between pages.
Maybe it only has one level of zoom...

Hot damned this was worth buying. i can now stream tv shows on the projector :>

hooray for youtube et al.

On screen keyboard, which is really easy to use once you get the hang of it.

If only it supported usb kbs

Ive got GC Linux running on mine with a wireless keyboard (ps/2 kbd -> controller port adapter), booting from an SD card.
