infernoDS Posted February 16, 2006 Posted February 16, 2006 So... You buy games as well don't you? I do agree that if they'd put a browser for the full price in the shops I'd be a bit disappointed.
Pointless Posted February 16, 2006 Posted February 16, 2006 (edited) i was going to start a html parser and a renderer, but... i'll just wait for opera xD But then you have to buy it!!!<{POST_SNAPBACK}> Edited February 16, 2006 by Pointless
davos1 Posted February 16, 2006 Author Posted February 16, 2006 No! I've already spwnt alot of money running homebrew on my ds. Also sgstair has spent alot of time to build a TCP library for the ds and now it will go to waste when everyone gets the opera crap!
melw Posted February 16, 2006 Posted February 16, 2006 No! I've already spwnt alot of money running homebrew on my ds. Also sgstair has spent alot of time to build a TCP library for the ds and now it will go to waste when everyone gets the opera crap!<{POST_SNAPBACK}> It's just nice to have a good commercial browser available. Not sure if I'm willing to spend money on it - have to first see how it's going to look like and what the final price is. Otherwise, there's lots of room for homebrew wifi applications - no official instant messenger apps, irc clients, email clients etc. have been announced. And not to mention having multiplayer possibility also for homebrew games.
captain_duck Posted February 17, 2006 Posted February 17, 2006 Its not like sgstair did all his work just so someone could make a browser. Hell no its for tons of things like internet playable homebrew games, or internet chat, and those remote access programs (or he just did it for the bounty ) And about buying it, well. The browser will most likely be released on a normal cart just like a game. And so it will probably dumped as a rom the day it comes out.
BlueBlue Posted February 17, 2006 Posted February 17, 2006 Well, it is also supposed to come with additional memory for the gba slot.
Warlord698 Posted February 17, 2006 Posted February 17, 2006 (edited) that would have to be a big must, watch somebody patch after it comes out where you can use a GBAMP or whatever for the mem after that up to 8GB of space Edited February 17, 2006 by Warlord698
davos1 Posted February 18, 2006 Author Posted February 18, 2006 But I think the Opera browser will be crap!
Warlord698 Posted February 18, 2006 Posted February 18, 2006 though it's better than nothing isn't it God knows I would die to have Firefox on it instead
captain_duck Posted February 18, 2006 Posted February 18, 2006 The opera browser will rock. Opera has allways been just as good, if not better then firefox, and they have MUCH more experience programming for small-display devices like telephones and PDA's. Were really lucky that opera is building the browser
Warlord698 Posted February 18, 2006 Posted February 18, 2006 (edited) yet since firefox has all the USER made plug-ins you can personalize to limitless proportions with a great variety of options Edited February 18, 2006 by Warlord698
