Hacking NDS to get official Opera based web broswer?

[ole jason]

Opera is pretty much the most secure browser you can use. You probably stand a greater chance of getting a virus on your cell phone than on the DS.

Will it have flash Player, Newgrounds on the DS

?
Will the actual cart with the software installed, actually be upgradeable? I dont want to get viruses on my DS

Will the browser be updatable, with security fixes etc.

I dont like how the PSP can be near 100% customised, whereas the DS has an "As it is" mentality.

i doubt that its possible since the DS only has 4mb of ram

I read a while back in an official Opera announcement that their DS software will be a "fully operational" browser that is capable of "accessing every part of the web". Let's keep our fingers crossed, hm?

They already said it would not be able to display flash.

I would assume that the cart will probably contain some expansion RAM of some sort, for exactly these purposes. Of course, that'll make it even more difficult to get it running on flash carts. Either way, I'm excited about it.

It doesn't work with Flash. Opera already confirmed it and IGN mentioned it in their preview.

I'm not sure what purpose a RAM expansion would have... I suppose they could do some kind of update but that seems doubtful. Writing a save to a cart and writing a software update are two different things entirely.

So, does anyone know when this will be released in Japan?
