Opera Exec: Wii will Use Remote to Surf Web

In an interview with IGN, executive vice president of Opera for Devices, Scott Hedrick said: “The [Wii] remote control is an extremely advanced tool. Opera plans to use this to its full advantage and it will provide an intuitive way to surf the Web.” If it works, I’m all for it.

  1. it will save me the 5 yard trip form my couch to my computer, but hey…if its built in, and free…why not?

  2. I'm suddenly seeing images of Tom Cruise waving his hands around surfing through a database with a PowerGlove in Minority Report….

  3. I still think it would be cool if you could also use an off-the-shelf Bluetooth keyboard to type in addresses and emails.

  4. Being able to use a bluetooth keyboard would be really nice. I hope they can make it so that you can pause your game and then go online to check gamefaqs or trade those pesky friend codes with your pals, and then come right back to your game.

  5. peshue…you just justified me not walking all the way to the computer. Damn your smooth.

  6. I'm down with this. Half a year left of speculation and other titillating information waiting to be exposed. I'm going to go nuts!

  7. I hope i can play Flash games with the Wiimote. maybe we can download stuff to the DS from the Wii. like infendo radio from the Wii to the DS and in my pocket. I could just buy an iPod but the show on the DS would be cool! and cheaper!
