I wish there were more applications that would start taking advantage of all the wireless technology that we have. Good example of a great app: Google Maps. I have it on my tilt, and love it.]]>Jan 21st 2008 5:15PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/01/21/disney-puts-nintendo-ds-to-use-as-interactive-tour-guide/http://www.engadget.com/2008/01/21/disney-puts-nintendo-ds-to-use-as-interactive-tour-guide/
Wouldn't it be cheaper and easier to buy a pda and install software on that?]]>Jan 21st 2008 5:18PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/01/21/disney-puts-nintendo-ds-to-use-as-interactive-tour-guide/http://www.engadget.com/2008/01/21/disney-puts-nintendo-ds-to-use-as-interactive-tour-guide/Jan 21st 2008 5:44PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/01/21/disney-puts-nintendo-ds-to-use-as-interactive-tour-guide/http://www.engadget.com/2008/01/21/disney-puts-nintendo-ds-to-use-as-interactive-tour-guide/
I meant something cheaper... Like $50...]]>Jan 21st 2008 6:11PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/01/21/disney-puts-nintendo-ds-to-use-as-interactive-tour-guide/http://www.engadget.com/2008/01/21/disney-puts-nintendo-ds-to-use-as-interactive-tour-guide/http://kotaku.com/gaming/dogs/dog-eats-ds-nintendo-eats-dog-er-cost-187972.php

obviously they're giving him a new unit for $50, so it can't cost that much to make. this makes it a good idea for disney, because number one the kids are already familiar with how to use the ds, it has a very efficient and easy to use hibernate mode, and more.

i plan to go to WDW soon after this gets launched.]]>Jan 21st 2008 6:25PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/01/21/disney-puts-nintendo-ds-to-use-as-interactive-tour-guide/http://www.engadget.com/2008/01/21/disney-puts-nintendo-ds-to-use-as-interactive-tour-guide/Jan 21st 2008 5:25PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/01/21/disney-puts-nintendo-ds-to-use-as-interactive-tour-guide/http://www.engadget.com/2008/01/21/disney-puts-nintendo-ds-to-use-as-interactive-tour-guide/http://www.aninconvenientblo.co.uk]]>Jan 23rd 2008 10:16AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/01/21/disney-puts-nintendo-ds-to-use-as-interactive-tour-guide/http://www.engadget.com/2008/01/21/disney-puts-nintendo-ds-to-use-as-interactive-tour-guide/Jan 21st 2008 5:38PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/01/21/disney-puts-nintendo-ds-to-use-as-interactive-tour-guide/http://www.engadget.com/2008/01/21/disney-puts-nintendo-ds-to-use-as-interactive-tour-guide/Jan 21st 2008 6:26PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/01/21/disney-puts-nintendo-ds-to-use-as-interactive-tour-guide/http://www.engadget.com/2008/01/21/disney-puts-nintendo-ds-to-use-as-interactive-tour-guide/Jan 21st 2008 6:32PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/01/21/disney-puts-nintendo-ds-to-use-as-interactive-tour-guide/http://www.engadget.com/2008/01/21/disney-puts-nintendo-ds-to-use-as-interactive-tour-guide/Jan 21st 2008 7:23PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/01/21/disney-puts-nintendo-ds-to-use-as-interactive-tour-guide/http://www.engadget.com/2008/01/21/disney-puts-nintendo-ds-to-use-as-interactive-tour-guide/Jan 21st 2008 6:10PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/01/21/disney-puts-nintendo-ds-to-use-as-interactive-tour-guide/http://www.engadget.com/2008/01/21/disney-puts-nintendo-ds-to-use-as-interactive-tour-guide/
Imagine going to Google maps while in the Disneyland park and getting a multi-color map of the park with all the attractions, restaurants and restrooms.b That would be cool.

Next step - add FastPass TXT messaging alerting you when its your time to hop on a ride so we dont have to wait in crazy lines. ]]>Jan 21st 2008 6:53PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/01/21/disney-puts-nintendo-ds-to-use-as-interactive-tour-guide/http://www.engadget.com/2008/01/21/disney-puts-nintendo-ds-to-use-as-interactive-tour-guide/
And like Carlos (above) said, TXT message alerts telling you about your FastPass times, meal times, or you could just program that into your phone yourself.

That would be neat. Though I don't want to be tethered to my devices the whole time I'm there.]]>Jan 21st 2008 8:01PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/01/21/disney-puts-nintendo-ds-to-use-as-interactive-tour-guide/http://www.engadget.com/2008/01/21/disney-puts-nintendo-ds-to-use-as-interactive-tour-guide/Jan 22nd 2008 12:02AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/01/21/disney-puts-nintendo-ds-to-use-as-interactive-tour-guide/http://www.engadget.com/2008/01/21/disney-puts-nintendo-ds-to-use-as-interactive-tour-guide/Jan 22nd 2008 1:41PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/01/21/disney-puts-nintendo-ds-to-use-as-interactive-tour-guide/http://www.engadget.com/2008/01/21/disney-puts-nintendo-ds-to-use-as-interactive-tour-guide/Jan 22nd 2008 4:04PM
