she didnt die from drinking too much water, she died from holding in her urine with an extremely full bladder and stomach at which point her kidney's gave out, as far as I understand. Anyway the only way you can die from too much water is if it causes you to vomit repeatedly and eventually become dehydrated from the lack of water in the body. That dude in the gulf war was forced to drink 11 gallons of water over a 3 hour period and then died, the pathologist gave a reason for death as extreme dehydration since his stomach was so full he would vomit more water out than he took in.
If you press the 1 button while reading the news, you can highlight text. I dunno how to copy paste it yet, but they need to put that in Opera. In time, i expect to see a weather channel that's integrated in to the news channel, that's integrated in to the message board and email, and so on. You play as your Mii and explore the virual globe and even play mini games or go fishing or take a boat ride, etc. It wont be soon but it'll be there. Like an Animal Crossing shell around the Wii Channels that handles them all as one fluid experience.
I'm also curious as to when a IM program will come in to being. Something that can run in the background and be accessed by pressing the home button so that you can send a message in the middle of gameplay and get a beep when a message is recieved or have chatrooms not unlike the DS rooms. But this whole 'building the online experience around the avoidance of getting kids hurt' has to go. The internet has been hurting kids for years - i was one of them, it's a part of growing up just like finding dad's playboys or being molested by the gym couch.
