Nintendo has a *Buffering*

[A Black Falcon]

USB keyboards... USB hub needed then I guess, at least if you also need the USB cable internet connector or if they add other USB device support like USB harddrives... easy enough though.

As for 'buffering', what they need to do is have it so it preloads, so you can wait and have it fully download and then watch it. But have it auto-delete when you finish or something, to save space. Like how any online video-sharing site works.

I will say this. Nintendo at least is doing stuff. It is slow and lethargic compaired to the speed at which Sony and MS are moving, but they are moving along. I actually wonder about the size and budget Nintendo has assigned to Wii's firmware and online support teams. It's not like they don't have the cash. In fact I'm pretty sure they could fill a tower up with gold coins and swim around in it, ala Scrooge McDuck. Best to put that money to use. Ya can't take it with you! But... a penny saved is a penny earned... He who hesitates is lost, but fools rush in... Um... maybe folk expressions don't equal a logical argument after all...

Yeah, but when you're starting from several hundred paces behind the other two competitors in most any aspect of online networking or gaming, how much does that count for...
