keyboard function on the Wii
There are many apps for the Wii and many updates within firmware for the Wii but I personally like the idea of this one, the latest news is that USB keyboards can now be used for typing in entries into some channels, this means that you can use the keyboard within the Nintendo Wii shop (you know where you can type in game titles in the search box.

This is well handy for those writing memos or want to write an email via the Wii Message Board, so ok the USB keyboards are usable in the Wii Shop and Wii Message Board but there is a downside, the downside is that you cannot use the keyboards in the Internet Channel (at the moment anyways).

We can see this being a success, “If you are a modder and have already used a keyboard please let us know.

    Take it one step further Nintendo, let us use a USB mouse and keyboard to play first person shooters. The first console maker to figure this out will draw so many people away from PC’s (myself being one of them) that they’ll end up dominating the market.
