I think you'll find that the issue is distribution; SDKs and cartridges are closely controlled by Nintendo and very, very expensive as a rule. SDKs for consoles can be 6 figure sums for example. Until there's open source kits, you might as well forget a native DS app, which is why using Java or Symbian on a WIFi equipped phone might be the better option.

But you have to buy him the new slimmer DS anyway, so you'll have a spare My current favourite is the upcoming Nokia 6136 that is Wifi equipped. Now if we can get at the Wifi through Java, how about a cellphone remote? -- CardinalFang You're only young once, but you can be immature forever...

I wonder how hard it is to write a native DS app? It's already got the wifi support. The browser method would be easier obviously, but it would have all the usual browser problems. With a native app, you could have the now playing info in the top screen, and the navigation in the bottom touch screen. While building a playlist, the playlist would go in the top, and the library in the bottom. Map the arrow keys to navigate the list, use the buttons for volume, etc. That would be so sweet. -- superbad superbad's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=53 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=21136 ___ Discuss mailing list Discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
