these can be used for just about anything (i.e. keyboards, headsets, etc.) , although, i've not heard anything "official" about their use. charging devices seems to work, but anything else does not. i'm sure nintendo will release a statement concerning those soon enough...maybe.

They are there because it looks pretty.

I believe its for a USB keyboard. Basically the Wii is a lil computer.

I know that there is a USB-ethernet adapter comming out, but I have no clue why there are two ports. Mabe some games will use them, developers getting creative.
