DS to get FREE homebrew browser
Oct 4th 2006 3:46AM (Joystiq)I personally own the Nintendo DS Browser and know for a fact that it doesn't go through Opera's parsing server to get the content.

Does the DS browser go through a server before connecting to sites?
No, Opera for Nintendo DS does not connect to a server before connecting to the site you want to visit.
It is a standalone browser, and it will contact each site directly, and not through a server in your country, as rumoured.
This is unlike the free mobile browser Opera Mini, which always goes through a server, because it does not have a Web rendering engine of its own. Opera for Nintendo DS does have a complete rendering engine.
I hope this clears it up once and for all

DS to get FREE homebrew browser
Oct 4th 2006 2:20AM (Joystiq)The Nintendo DS Browser does NOT require the website's content to be parsed by Opera's servers. It is a full fledged browser that runs the same core as your desktop browser. The only Opera based browser that its content is parsed before reaching your device is Opera Mini for mobiles.
Get your facts right next time. GJ2U
On another note, there is already a text browser available in DSLinux. Having a nice graphical browser sounds nice and all, but this OKIWI thing won't follow much of the web standards and will display mostly anything complexly structured the wrong way.
