Nintendo Including More RAM in DSi, Opera Wii Widgets

It wouldn't shock me if the DSi was actually a great deal more powerful than the DS lite. After a year or two, Nintendo could unlock that extra power for developers. By then, developers will have started taking more advantage of the DSi's extra features anyway, like DLC and the cameras, making the DS lite and phat more and more obsolete. Then Nintendo can flip the switch and the DSi makes a clean transition to pretty much being "DS 2".

Of course I'm just speculating, but it would not surprise if something like that was the case.

Makes sense that the DSi would have more ram considering how it will be more web based this time round.

Hmm - I think whilst the DSi is better and will perform more smoothly, there'll most likely be a true DS2 in 2011 or 12. Good to know it's been beefed up RAM wise!

I need a new DS anyway after my bro was through with mine. It'll be great to use it for internet when bored in my lectures.

I dought the extra ram is accessible for game\'s.
Nintendo wont want to split or complicate the market too much.

\"Then Nintendo can flip the switch and the DSi makes a clean transition to pretty much being \"DS 2\".\"

Its no where near of enough of an upgrade for that.
Its more probably testing the waters for what features might be used on the true successor.

\"In addition, with integrated Opera coming with the DSi, it will use RAM more efficiently.\"

This makes a big difference actualy, it probably dosnt have to load *any* of its program into ram, thus all the ram is free for the webbrowser.

Anyway, I love Opera.
They are incredibly efficiant at using PC resources, which is probably why Nintendo used them.
None of the other main webbrowsers would have a hope in hell of working on the DS.
