Oh my dear god, this is the msot surprising, wonderful and 'Nintendo' E3 ever, and let me remidn you people that it hasn't even started yet.
Just as I was starting to doubt Nintendo they come and complete steal the show. The DS looks brilliant, and at £100 should beat the PSP hands down (on paper, anyway) and I think the new Zelda style could just give the Cueb the revival it needs.
Anyway, I'm gonna shut up and gawp and Zelda pics.

Anywhere that can pick up Wi-fi
Can you use it anywhere?
Noline is Wi-Fi technology - using a sattelite connection to get on the net.
As far as I'm aware anyway.

Got a question about DS. What is this noline thing Nintendo are talking about? Is it the internet or something? What is this Wireless connection?
Just. Wow.

Ever tried actually using one of those things??
I've not got terribly bad handwriting, but even with my best effort at writing these things just aren't very good :D
Touch screen is decent for choosing buttons, but not really for handwriting recognition, that's almost as bad as the voice recognition systems you get for word processors, they are just pathetic :D
Maybe a touch screen keypad. The keypad on the bottom screen, and the actual text on the top, that'd work for the DS.

Ericsson released one for their phones a few years back. Worked pretty well actually.
Attachable keyboards, maybe?
