thats absolutley stupid i think. if its free for the pc...why not for the wii. watch for some hacks coming out for that ha

im getting a little confused. i get it that its gonna be free for a while. does that mean that, its free to download.. and if u were lucky to download it for free, u dont have to pay later on. or, will it always be free to download, but will have to start paying monthly for it starting in june (assuming its a monthly charge)

From wii.nintendo.com:

"When available, this channel will dramatically change the relationship between your home, the television and the Internet. After downloading the Opera browser with Wii Points, you can surf the Internet right from the comfort of your couch. You can do quick research while watching a television program ("What was that actor's name again?"), or book travel plans and shop during commercials. The service is compatible with Macromedia Flash and also runs AJAX software."

Opera Browser w/ Wii Points; Wii Points cost money; Opera Browser = not free.

The opera browser WILL be free until June or July then it will cost. Nintendos way of saying thanks for buying it.

You can do quick research while watching a television program ("What was that actor's name again?")...

do they think that people are gonna be watching tv, then all of a sudden hit the "tv/video" button on their remote, then turn on their wii and go online just for that?

btw, would u be able to download anything of the internet onto the wii. not sure if thats been brought up yet.

If it's a ONE TIME charge then it's ok, but a reoccurring fee will be a huge Mistake on Nintendo's part.

The Internet Channel will be available for a FREE download until June 2007.
Once you get the browser... you will have it forever.
There is no monthly fee associated with the channel.
But after June 2007, you will have to pay ONCE for the browser.
Then you have it forever as well.
