Sorry, but also PictoChat is a built in chatting program, where you can talk to anybody running it withing 30 feet. There are 4 chatrooms, ABC&D. You can use the stylus to type on the little keyboard, or you can literally write or draw on it.TheFreak said:strangely, no. the microphone has not yet been used as a chatting tool in the DS, however I read in my GI that Metroid Prime is getting out of game chat, or something. also, in Japan they are releasing Opera web browser for the DS... ftwPrincess Dis said:TheFreak said:Disappointed said:Hey, if anyone feels like explaining to me exactly how the WIFI connection works, that'd be great. I'm giving serious consideration to getting a DS, and I'd love to play against some of you guys

The Nintendo DS has a built in network adapter, allowing it to pick up signals from a wireless router, or the Nintendo Wi-Fi USB dongle (don't laugh) so all you really need is a wireless router, don't worry the service is free, however Nintendo has granted game publishers to choose whether or not they want to charge. Sadly, the famous PictoChat is not Wi-Fi. Plus, places like McDonald's or Starbucks that are Wi-Fi HotSpots also work, if you don't want to buy a wireless router, but I have one so I can play online in the comfort of my home. Well, hope this helps... :wink:
!@#$ yes! I need 120 bucks. Badly :lol:
Man, that's great...I'd love to play some of you guys, maybe at tetris, maybe at Mario Kart. One more n00bish question, can you currently use the microphone that's built in to talk to people, or not? Annnd...what's the PictoChat?
People have drawn really awesome things on there too, check this out.
