I'm talking about actual moving around, not going from your chair to the bathroom, etc. I never sit down and play a portable game, I play it on the go. And I could care less if PSP is the same way.

Well, if your playing single player, it doesnt matter what your doing. But if you want to play online, your gonna have to either sit down and play or if the DS has a method that auto pick's up on new networks that have no encryption and can continue playing. But who knows, Nintendo hasn't said much on online play for DS yet

Right, a Hot Spot is only necessary for online play. You can always just wirelessly link up with your friends if you're hanging out - no Hot Spot necessary.

What else is Nintendo supposed to do for portable online access? They'd have to either put Satellite linkage into the DS (expensive) or use a Cell Phone Tower system to relay the data (also expensive).

You can't blame them - there's no other good way to do it. We're lucky they're doing it at all.

That's what I was thinking. Take it or leave it!! There's no alternative.
