    Are there any plans to host some sort of service for handheld gamers?

    Havn't heard anything yet but I hope it won't be long before they start.

    Didn't Micky D's sign up with Nintendo in the US to host hotspots for the DS!? It'd be the only reason I'd ever venture into one

    Would be a great idea, but it costs money, and since when have Game ever done anything like that for free?

    i think that secured and Ds and PSP cant see networks that are secured, but assume they do it on a certain port so server admins can ensure its only DSs/PSps on the network.
