Internet browser on Wii

[kris123]

Hi Folx:

I thought Wii came with an Internet browser but I did not see one, neither could I download it. Any idea when the browser will be available.

Thanks

under the wii shop you click on start shopping and then there are a couple options, such as VC software and "Wii-Ware" and it will be in Wii-Ware of course all it shows is a picture of google.com and says that it will be coming shortly

im pretty sure it will always be free. a browser should never cost money. if it does ever cost anything, im sure some people will find a way to acess it or make a browser like they did for the PSP

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)
