Greetings everybody,

I purchased the DS for my kids and was so impressed with it that I bought one for myself, THEN I heard about these cool Media Carts, so I purchased an R4, slapped in 2GB, updated the Kernal and now what?

I'd like to get the iPod emulator, web browser and some other nds files, but I wouldn't know how to find them. Any suggestions? Please PM me.

Do I just tap the files to launch them? The shell looks pretty simple, is there any cool things that I should try out? I tap the Games icon and it only takes me to a folder. Any tips would be appreciate.

You have the basics. The games and homebrew will come as .nds files and run under the games icon. MP3's and .dpg format videos can be run under Moonshell (the middle icon). The iPod program is an .nds and runs as a game, and plays MP3's nicely. Even supports playlists if I remember correctly.

There are lots of places to look.

Start here and I'll try to PM you a few places as well:

I think the iPod clone is on the last link.
