The browser works really well, I will try and get a picture on a better TV later. The only things missing are tabbed browsing and spell check. Oh and I'm posting from my Wii right now

The image isnt showing up in this thread or on the main page. Or maybe its just me.

There is an on screen keyboard.

I'm in the middle of a baseball game on it, I'll take a picture and edit this post when I'm done.

Edit:



Even cooler, when you get Wiimail, it glows.

Edit: Here is some Wiiglow, thank you Kristian (calhounian) for the Wiimail

It's just fun to try something new, typing on a normal keyboard is easier yes, but when there is new technology, why not try it out?

The forcast channel also came out just recently, It lets you see weather in your area at the current time, and a 5-Day forecast. You can also use the Globe option to see weather around the world. Also, at the bottom it says "Images owned by NASA"

Tom... either try a diffrent wireless connection... or you can go spend a whopping 30$ for the USB lan adapter...

Thats pretty cool that you can do such things on the Wii. Are you going to get the Opera browser for Wii when it comes out?

if you are having trouble with the wireless, switch to either channel 1 or 11 on your router.us I had the same problem and that fixed it.us P.S.IM posting this from my wii as well!

I saw this thread from my friend's wii (not posting there). It's cool.

One thing, I hope they come up with alternate input methods. The OSK is slow. (Personally, I'd like something like dasher.)

Dasher is nice. I think the people trying to get Linux on the Wii, WiiLi, are planning on doing that but from the looks of it they are not very organized.

Ouch what a pain, can you get carpal tunnel syndrome from waving that wii controller around? Typing would be a pain!

Actually, the on-screen keyboard is much easier to use than many would expect. Even though I prefer typing on a keyboard, I think the on-screen is a great alternative...

Though, I prefer keeping the WiiConnect24 feature off, simply because I don't want to wake up to a giant blue light in the middle of the night
