for all you DS fans...

Finally! I Knew it would Come!

DS Web Browser
By: Nintendo, Opera

http://www.gamespot.com/ds/puzzle/dsbrowser/index.html
The DS Web Browser uses opera! Not bad, check it out! Images, News, and Previews!

RELEASE DATE: TBA (Japan: July 24, 2006)
boy i wish i lived in JP...

UPDATE!:
http://db.gamefaqs.com/portable/ds/file/ds_browser_trans.txt

FAQ on the browser.

It will be possible to connect to SEN on the DS! Since SEN is only supported in English, if you get the JP version, it will display SEN in English!

Some notes...
Web page size: There will be to modes: DS Mode and SSR mode. i reccomend usng ssr mode, and it will resize the web page to fit the ds screens. DS mode will show the original size of the web page. Zooming is available too.

No Video Available. Regardless of the format. you will also not be able to view videos on places as YouTube, GoogleVideo, etc.

No Sound Available

Updating: None are planned at this time.

Google Searching: Since the search engine is regularly designed to be yahoo! JP, you can change it to google instead!
http://www.google.com/webhp?hl=en&lr

Note that just going to the regular Google URL will not make it displayed in english. you would have to bookmark the URL i just provided.

Parental Controls: Lol, it will cost a monthly fee to provide a internet sucurity. rofl.

ONLINE CHAT!! Connect to AIM on your DS! http://mob.e-messenger.net/mobile/
Browser Speed:
The Browser speed to go to another page you would like to view only takes about less than 10 seconds. But if there are many images on the page, it could take a minute or so. It is possible to turn images off in the settings.

Pop-Ups:
No Pop-Ups! YAY! Since the browser can only supports one window at a time, there will be no annoying pop-ups!
Viruses:
It would be impossible, fortunately, to get viruses onto your ds. Yay!
Downloading Content:
It will not be able to download content with the browser because there will be no place to store the content. Sry

Also plugins, Java and flash will not be available on the browser (But javascript will).

1up.com had a preview, and it suffered from what I thought it would, a tiny screen. A tiny screen=a tiny webpage. It also has navigation problems.

I'll have to read GameSpot.com's preview of it though, even though I won't be buying it.

Imagine playing starcraft on a DS. You can draw a circle around your units and move them or draw a picture of fire and kill units around it.

Draw fire?

Attention PSP fanboys, you just lost your last argument.

sounds cool, but i don't think it would surf the web that well, but i'd love it if you can surf the web from anywhere...but i think it might encounter a few obstacles on the way if it its web capable like it needs a router or some port it can connect to, slow, uses the battery faster, etc. but meh, i'll see it for myself when it comes out.

Pretty cool. Im not getting it though because I prefer to spend my money on games and the only time I have a Wi-Fi connection is at home, in front of my COMPUTER.

PSP Is really a horrible hand held system

YAY for the DS!, finally. a web browser on the DS!

That is pretty crazy and before you know it, all handheld gaming devices will allow you to surf the internet.

This made me laugh though "can you look at pornography?" on the DS, "Yes but you'll need three hands".

I already heard this in Nintendo Power. I could be lucky, and get this if I ever go to Japan. Like how I got FF3 on DS in JP

I guess that you don't know that you can already do that if you buy that one special router that plugs into the TV and has a keyboard slot...

If only DS had Linux...

I bet I could boot it on one, I might have to modify some hardware first, though.
