As usual, this is for those people who haven't heard about it yet
To be released in Japan on 7-24-06 is the Opera DS web browser. Yes folks, we can now view the internet on a handheld screen that's readible, no more tiny phone font we can kind of understand.
However, it does not support Video or Audio files, Flash, or PDF(portable document format)
Europe gets it at about 10-06-2006.

Just to mention, the DS is currently beating the PSP in sales.

I think he "hates" Japan cause they get new stuff first.

But, you know, this isn't the first handheld thing to have internet besides phones. PSPs can go online too.

.....btw, check out my new title. :D

Reality doesn't care if you believe in it.

I just don't like the Xbox, or playstation at all. I'll probably have to get one if I want to play Armagedon though...

So, the DS online was fantastic for me.

OMG Armagedon is going to have a mario kart style kart game in it! (except with death traps and blood)
I can't wait for that game =P. Sry for getting off topic...

oh it's alright, I can't wait for it either. But it might be the last time we see any of the old characters. If you want to, we actually had a topic on it way back when I could find.

Anyway, I'm still trying to get my DS online now. Connecting the portable to your wireless router so you can play people all over the world. It's supposed to be easy but I'm sure the password protected one we use is giving me trouble.

I just don't have the time to go anywhere like that at the moment.

But, in the meantime, I found a blog article from someone who supposedly tried the prototype
