There is a good chance that either an update will allow us to set the led to on, or a hack will come out that will give us the same option.

my blue LED comes on after a while when it is on standby and it stays on until I start the wii.

It actually pulsates a bit.

this feature only works when you receive an message, not when you play a game. It's in the manual page 4 under game slot.

I am having the exact same deal with my LED. I was really looking forward to it lighting up all nice and glowing etc. But I thought I had a defective one as well, because of the lightning fast flash, and thats IT.
It seems there should be a setting for keeping it on, if you want to have it on, which I DO...but no luck?!? All the pictures in the manual and everything show it sitting there with the blue light on. What the hell, Nintendo? Jipping us on the pretty lights?!? Come on!!
Any real solutions yet?

When i came home from school my Wiis Blue LED was glowing and it kept blinking and glowing untill i turned my wii on i think it was updating something for me but i dont know what maybe zelda?

Yes, but clearly your 'orange' light is on, meaning your Wii is not actually on, but on STANDBY, and you're receiving a message or an update, as already covered here.
Nice try though.

the Wii is capable to e-mail ppl and stuff thru the Wii messages. its quite amazing. u just add a e-mail address to the Wii's address book, then the e-mail is sent to that account (eg. name@something.com) and then they just have to reply to the Wii message and boom, ther connected to eachother and able to send messages to eachother, u can also message other Wiis (im doing so right now)

address book?

hey everyone, i figured out the damn LED just and i mean JUST now...it lights up all nice and stuff if someone sends u a message. it glows a nice blue, and then lights brighter, then dims, then brightens, etc. its pretty cool. i used my e-mail to send a message to my Wii and it workd like a charm. if it doesnt work, then u have to leave you remote alone and wait a few seconds for it. so far, this is how im able to do it. hope this helps everyone.

Ok, I've tried this, but even though I get the email, the slot won't light up! Is there anything else that I can do?
