Hacking Acekard

[Tigas100]

First things first, sorry for my English x)
So, I've been using an M3 DS Real (Sakura Firmware) for quite long now and I'm thinking of buying an Acekard since it has great compability (Pokémon HG SS crash on every flashcard except this one), nice support and updates, AKAIO firmware (looking forward to test it, I just heard from people that it's awesome).

This are my questions:

What are the differences between Acekard 2 and 2i? Just the DSi compability? If yes, should I buy the 2 normal version (since it's cheaper)? Does this flashcard freezes on Wi-Fi (I saw some videos on youtube and they got me concerned)? Does a normal SD 2 GB works on this Acekard (I used it for M3 DS Real) ? Do you think it's better than M3? If yes, please specify the advantages and the disavantages.

Thanks in advance =)

Yes, the only difference is DSi support. I would get the AK2i since it works on ALL DS's. It may be a little more, but if you decide to buy a DSi, you wouldn't need to buy another card.

Thanks, think I will buy an Acekard 2i if I find some portuguese/spanish website that sells it, I just find out 2 that sell it but the send costs are huge, I found a spanish website with a Acekard 2 at 8.00€, however it's a regular acekard, not the 2i, so if I don't find another one that sells acekard 2i cheaper I will just buy a regular Acekard 2. But before that answer my other questions please...

What are the differences between Acekard 2 and 2i? Just the DSi compability? If yes, should I buy the 2 normal version (since it's cheaper)?From what I'm to understand -- and I do NOT own an Acekard 2.1 nor 2i -- the difference between the two is very little other than the 2i works on DSi's.
However, it seems that the 2.1's have an issue with some batches that causes problems.
Because the price difference between 2.1 and 2i is so little (usually ~$3USD), it's recommended to get the 2i.

Does this flashcard freezes on Wi-Fi (I saw some videos on youtube and they got me concerned)?I've never seen this and never heard of this specifically, but I have heard of SOME issue with WiFi.
No one I know who has an AceKard 2.1/2i has had a problem.

Does a normal SD 2 GB works on this Acekard (I used it for M3 DS Real) ?

It should.
You might want to format the card using the Panasonic MicroSD formatter.

Do you think it's better than M3? If yes, please specify the advantages and the disavantages.

That's really a matter of perspective.
The M3 Real/M3i Zero have extra features like RTS (Real Time Save), but the AceKard2i seems to have better compatibility sooner with AKAIO.

Okay thanks alot =D

Since I don't have a M3i Zero I'm really going to buy Acekard.
