Nov 14th 2007 5:34PM Weird, never seen a post truncated like that before.

Maybe it is because I used less-than dollar-sign in my post. I'll leave it out this time.

What about those glasses with the built in LCD monitor, now you don't even need carry a screen on it at all...

Wii to drop MP3 support, add AAC in Photo Channel update {Engadget}
Nov 13th 2007 6:45PM This isn't a system update, it's just the Photo Channel. If you need mp3, don't go to the online store and get the new Photo Channel... If you buy a Wii that already has the new Photo Channel installed, well I guess you better like AAC!
