My town is called Hogwarts  I am Hermione and Ryan is Harry. LOL. Didn't think about changing the town flag to a lightning bolt!!! And my town song is a line from Blackbird by the Beatles....so it isn't all HP. But we do plan to make the song like the HP theme when we get our hands on the sheet music so I know the right notes. Roz, can you move rocks? Mike, if you have a wireless network on your PC already, you don't have to buy the additional piece to attach to your DS. But since I don't have that, Nintendo makes one you attach to the DS so you can have access like everyone else. For $35, it will be worth it. I ordered it yesterday and should have it soon. |

Fantastic news Mike - and I think Godric's Hollow is a great choice |

Mike, did you get it? I saw the Red one yesterday and thought of you. I went and bought more screen protectors and more stylis's. Mike, do you have a wireless router already, or do you need to buy the connector like me? I am excited. Soon, I will be visiting you all!!!

So you would need to buy the WiFi connector from Nintendo? It is $35, plus $5 shipping, and tax depending on where you are from. I know you needed to pay tax in NJ, but only certain states required it from them.

lol - do you wander about the house on your laptop surfing the web without being connected to anything?
That would be a hint!
Just ask your Mum if you have one set up.

Basically you would have a wireless ADSL router at the point that the phone plug is... but (lol) we have it set up a bit more complicated than that because Mark uses Apple airport express so he can pipe his iTunes around the house  Your other options are 1) Get a $35-40 USB dongle thingy that you plug into your computer and then within 10m of your computer (approx) you can play the game (the advantage of a home set up is that it has a larger range). or 2) Sit on a bench outside your local gameshop and play there (you might get some funny looks though ) but a lot of game shops are connected to Ninto Wifi for demonstration and 'hotspot' purposes |

Yep - that same doo dah, I think the real actual technical term really is "dongle" lol - what's the world coming to?
Do you know that the drivers that connect your scanner to your computer are called TWAIN drivers which stands for technology without an interesting name... I kid you not!

Okay, EVERONE has to get a DS and buy this game!! Ryan and I wet to visit Roz and Mark's villages tonight, and I was in tears laughing!!!! This is by far one of the greatest games I have ever owned! I honestly think it is worth the money to buy the DS just for this game alone! And it plays regular gameby games....so if you have a gamboy...this is a great upgrade |

Well at least it plays gameboy advance games... I don't think it does "classic" gameboy games. Although I don't know how many people still have those lying around!
I gotta say, AirPort express is actually a lot easier to set up than most wifi networks but by far the easiest option for the DS is the Nintendo official dongle - good choice.
Let us know when you get it all set up and we can all come visit your town. Practice your net-manship and we can duel!

I don't know. In about 4 hours we are leaving for an engagement party. We are home all day tomorrow though. I did try to go out today, but Mark's gates weren't open  |

Its only 16,000 if you sell it on Saturday. Less if you do it before. And you can give it to the hungry walrus too when he comes during the week.
Yes, we saw Joan and got our turnips and are now fishing for the fishing tournament today! I checked if Marks gates were open, but they weren't. I will check again later.
