I sent SB a message from my wireless keyboard two days ago. It worked fine with no issues.
Now they just need to update the internet channel and we are good to go.

I went to wal-mart and bought a cheap $30 wireless keyboard and mouse.....and it works, no problems at all

I'm assuming the some that don't work are the real fancy ones that require their own specific keyboard drivers where basic default drivers will not allow the device to work at all

looks like it changed what the blue pulse looks like on your Wii when you get a message over wiiconnect24 as well

NeoThunder:

Was your Wireless Keyboard Bluetooth and synched right up or what?

The Cube had a much much cooler clock.

No, it's not a blutooth keyboard. I'm not sure what kind of wireless other than to say it's just a standard, inexpensive, R/F wireless keyboard.

It's actually a ps/2 style connector on it and an ps/2 to USB adapter bought at wal-mart allowed it to work

okay, bigger "arrggghhh!!"... the Internet Channel doesn't work anymore

Wireless keyboards should work - they're basically plug and play. I already have keyboard in my living room that I use for xDSL on my Xbox. Mouse and keyboard support was the one edge that Firefox had on the Wii's Opera browser, but if they add USB support, then I can pretty much ditch xDSL, although the USB ports I installed on my XBox will be lonely.

I have tried a bluetooth keyboard and no connection. I did use the USB adapter though and it connected no problem.

Now I can't wait to be able to use the keyboard with Opera.

I haven't read everything people have read about the update, or if we got the same update here in the UK. Haven't checked the version number, but the new differences here are:

1. Clock now displayed on Wii menu
2. Play history envelopes are now hite, not yellow and have the Internet channels sound effects when you browse up and down your play history.
3. The calendar used to display an envelope on the monthly calendar display for every day you'd played. It doesn't anymore, you can still view them if you click the date. Envelopes are only displayed for events E.G you get a medal in Wii sports or someone has sent you a message.
4. Every time I inseret or eject a disc, the blue drive light flashes.
5.The Wii shop channel looks completely different. Its got a much better layout and I think loads a little faster. You can also search for games on Virtual Console by typing the game name into a search bar.

That's all I've noticed so far. I don't think this is Reggie's surprize, as he said that's coming at the end of September. I'm guessing its something downloadable, seen as this surprize was originally going to be available at launch.

has anyone checked to see if it shows the title in the disk channel when you insert a gamecube disk?

UltimatePartyBear · « **Reply #89 on:** August 13, 2007, 10:06:22 AM »

It still doesn't.

Blue Plant · « **Reply #90 on:** August 13, 2007, 10:45:49 AM »

Always love updates (the good kind, that is >.>). I hope one day they lessen the dB of some of the sound effects used to browse the Wii interface. Ones like cycling through the menus in the control panel are much louder than the rest. Piercing...

new update woot! Fixes the wii lan internet and finally fixes the internet channel from frezzing!

NeoThunder · « **Reply #92 on:** August 14, 2007, 02:11:08 AM »

want...keyboard......internet browser

the1st_fret · « **Reply #93 on:** August 14, 2007, 04:00:06 AM »

Yeah I was just gonna say, after the update we've been talking about. I got a new one today. Here's what it said:

"A new update for your Wii console is available!

This update will prevent your Wii console from locking up, which can occur when using the internet channel if you press reset on either your wii console or the home menu. This update also corrects some internet connection stability issues when using the Wii LAN adapter from Nintendo.

Please press the update button on the bottom right to update your Wii console.

- - Nintendo."

Oh and I was going to ask, on the subjects of updates. I went to the shop channel, and on some of the titles I'd downloaded, they had an "Updated" tag on them, which was a free download which didn't cost any space or points. When I checked the games they were still the same. What to the VC game updates do?

Thanks.

Dan.

the net browser sucks Anyway. well, i guess its ok for extremely basic uses, like txt and imgs, not music and video.

Spak-Spang · « **Reply #95 on:** August 14, 2007, 07:13:57 AM »

I expect an eventual update once Nintendo finally gets a hard drive and keyboard support...in fact, I expect Nintendo to package a hard drive and keyboard together...just a prediction.

Ghisy · « **Reply #96 on:** August 14, 2007, 08:55:10 AM »

It's weird: I never get any message from Nintendo about new updates being available.
I just go to the settings and run the update from there.

My update notices come extremely late. I just got mine this morning even though I had already done the latest update.

I'm still waiting for the notice about last week's big Wii shop update :p .

Mashiro · « **Reply #99 on:** August 14, 2007, 09:04:03 AM »

LOL.

I think the same people who are responsible for sending out Wii updates are the ones responsible for sending out the NWR prizes for hot topic winners.

BA-ZING!
