    The shop uses opera, this was a hack to let you use it as a browser.

    Really nothing usefull at all. Unless you need a calculator or periodic table. I'm not sure how they were hoping to get from this to linux.

    Are you sure? I thought this was an indie development from before the Wii *had* a native browser.

    The wii always had a native browser, opera is run when you turn on the wii. It's used for lots of the UI.

    wiix was a hack to allow this locked down version of opera to break out to other web pages.

    No beta or anything special. It was pointless and the things the guy said on the youtube video were impossible. He got his fifteen minutes of fame.
