Greetings from my Wii!

Just got the internet channel working on my Wii.

I must get a wireless keyboard - this remote typing is s***e.

CDTi · 14th August 2008, 23:21

Phew

- back on the PC again. It took me ages to type that first message.

At least I now have internet access on the large screen in the sitting room. Won't be doing much typing until I get some kind of wireless keyboard, though

.

Must also get a component or PC cable. The pic isn't great with composite.

It really is fun I think.....

You must try YouTube (if you haven't already). I love watching my favourite music videos or comedy clips from the comfort of my sofa, something seems to grab me more than sitting there with a laptop

All the Wii needs now is the DVD player update.....lol

IMHO the ultimate games console would relpace everything from your DVD player to your Freeview or Sky box

Now that would be a million seller

I use my DSP technology projector on an 8ft screen through a set of 500 soundlab speakers......It gives you a little (whoops I did a little wee) experience when it really gets going.....lol

On my 32 inch LCD I only use the component input, but it still pumps out on the soundlabs

CDTi · 14th August 2008, 23:58

Must look good on the 8ft screen

.

Ah - thats better. Now on wireless keyboard with the Wii.

Can't get the mouse to work, though.

No smilies either.
