Hi,
Sorry if this has been asked before (just scorn me and post a link) but I was wondering a couple of things.
1) Can I host any .nds file (under 4MB) to download via WifiMe. (That is, use it without a GBA cart).
2) Can some one develop a program (preferably in java) that makes a photo-gallery program for the DS. Users should be able to feed in pictures and the program should generate a .nds file for hosting.
(Similar to the E3 downloadable content - LOZ gallery) (Files should be able to be distributed via WifiMe)
3) Can some one develop a program (preferably in java) that makes a simple video player for the DS. (similar to the E3 downloadable content - LOZ trailer) (Files should be able to be distributed via WifiMe, and this means the whole .nds file needs to < 4MB)
4) Can WifiMe host multiple files at one time?
The reason I ask this is that it occurs to me that you could use the DS to advertise to kids (and even kids at heart) at fairs, trade shows etc etc.
I volunteer for a not-for-profit TV start up, and this could be a great way to reach out to younger people. I'm personally thinking of a loading up our trailers on the GBA movie advance and playing them at our next outing (Assuming I can secure it in place so no one walks away with my beloved DS).
It also could be great for spreading word of mouth (kids might start talking about this), as well letting people interact with content/advertisements in a manner they don?t normally get to do at fairs/trade shows.
As far as who wants to do these tasks and not donate their time (I can see this taking sometime to do) I would be willing personally to throw $20 or so on a bounty to get the ball rolling. That said this could look great on a resume.

EDIT: Just read this: http://users.belgacom.net/bn967347/
so that answers 1 & 4 (yes and yes)
