New DS Feature
Secret port on the system, most people think it is part of a microphone headset... i can see how this might be used as a "free" cell phone type communication.... what do you think, voicemail on the Nintendo DS? sounds good to me.

Re: New DS Feature
I'm going to have to say it's a headset port. Nintendo is very strict about making sure their systems never stray from their primary purpose and phone capability would not relate to fun gaming.

Re: New DS Feature
using the wifi to communicate with someone to set up games and or voice comm similar to xbox live would make sense to me. but that's just a guess anyways.

No, too much danger, too many liabilities. Nintendo would get sued because kids would get abducted by alleged 'playmates'.

Re: New DS Feature
There could be other uses for it. Could be used as a dual headset and mic so you dont look so dumb  But yeah, I think its just going to be a standard headset thing but you never know what Nintendo will do anymore...

Re: New DS Feature
But it's already got a microphone built in. What would it matter if it had a head-set? It would improve the quality of microphone use, but if there's already one built in it seems kind of pointless.

Re: New DS Feature
Well, if you do stop being blind for one second, you will notice the picture next to the port of a headset. Thus indicating some sort of sound recognition, and headphones so you can listen to the games in solitude and peace.

Re: New DS Feature
Well... Nintendo is very suspicious of this feature.... 
Why wouldn't they just admit it's a mic port??
It could be a pheriphal (spelling?) port, perhaps for a camera (in the form of a worm light)?
