That guy is an expert at typing; there is no way I could every do it that fast.

It looks really cool; all I need to do is hook up my Wii to the ‘net and I’m away.

You should get a Wii.

This “trial” of the Wii is supposed to always remain fully functional. They have said that it doesn’t have all of the features that the end result will have but it is not time-limited in any way.

I so want a Wii as well as that browser. Just two things in my way: no Wii and no wireless internet

I heard the final release will cost 500 Wii pts = $5 ? If I end up getting it I’ll just use the last test version rather than paying (unless they somehow disable it).

As far as the typing issue goes they could surely release a simple little wireless keyboard to make this even easier, or maybe allow you to use your DS to act as a keyboard?

i actually found that accurate typing was harder than i had expected. perhaps i was expecting too much but i have to backspace a lot. or maybe my aim just sucks.

and i wish the browser would remember my zoom setting between pages, since i am always zooming in. perhaps the final version will allow for this.

has the final price been announced for when it officially launches (non-beta)? will it still be free?

Typing on it not as nearly hard, and the way it sizes the web page according to my TV size is simply wonderful. Opera has done a very good job with it, and I will be surfing with web on my TV.

And then you make it sound even cooler. I almost want to buy a Wii just for this.
