I got my accessories like a year ago, so my stuff is a little out of date compared to what's available now. Basically, I have one little card that fits in the DS game slot - this card lets the DS boot up into "DS mode" (as opposed to GBA mode) but still have access to the larger GBA card slot. So then you get a second card that fits in the GBA slot that takes either MMC/SD or Compact Flash. When you boot up, it shows you the files and folders on whatever flash memory card you're using and you pick what you want to run.
I use DSOrganize to listen to mp3s. It's kind of a kitchen-sink app - has some cool little tools like an image viewer, text/HTML file reader, a calendar, to do list, etc - stuff that would be great if there were only some way to sync it :/ Also it has an IRC client (I don't do much IRC anymore, but it's a pretty neat feature). I have a CF version - with a 2GB CF card (plenty of room for homebrew and mp3s). The CF card sticks out a bit more than the MMC/SD's obviously. Newer cards take MicroSD cards and don't stick out at all (and 2GB MicroSD cards can be found for like $20). - Jason L. > -----Original Message----- > From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Rob Hudson > Sent: Thursday, June 14, 2007 1:00 PM > To: Eugene Unix and Gnu/Linux User Group > Subject: Re: [Eug-lug] Safari + iPhone = Killer App > > On 6/14/07, Jason LaPier <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > obviously not going to compete with NDS or PSP.
