This is a good thing... and the reason I suspect it has taken Nintendo
this long to release the Opera browser. I would suspect as new Opera
releases come available, adult content blocking is going to be a big
area of R&D for Opera in order to make Nintendo happy.

if this is true, I knew Nintendo would not allow or want people to be
able to surf porn or so called "filth" on their game console--because
it would tarnish their image. that said, it's impossible for Nintendo
or Opera to stop people from reading adult newsgroups or certain
webpages, even if their able to block some of the porn. I'm actually
still surprised Nintendo is allowing a web browser on its console (and
DS also) at all. you can surf over to Playstation or Xbox websites,
you could buy products that compete with Nintendo online with the Wii
if you wanted to. you could post bad things about Nintendo with the
Wii if you choose to, etc.

I can't get through to their network... If I try to connect to the Wii
Shop channel it keeps giving me an error code "unable to connect to
server" and keeps forcing me to try again.

Looks like Nintendo isn't setup to deal with the traffic.
