hello, TOUCHSCREEN

It sounds to me like GBAMP is the standard among homebrewers around here. I suppose it helps to set some kind of standard (if that's possible, is it?) otherwise sharing becomes tricky. I'm starting to lean towards the purchase of a GBAMP myself, rather than going the route of the typical flash card. I'm guessing the GBAMP's only limitation worth mentioning would be lack of RAM? I'll search for more info.

Sounds great. Thank you, guys!

Thanks for the info!
So it looks like I want to go the route of getting a flash cart and a passme.
Now, I use a Netgear router. I don't have a compatible RT type card for wifime, so that's why I'm passing on that option.
Do I understand correctly that sgstair's wifi hack will allow me to connect without the need for wifime? In other words, once I have the IRC client booted up on the DS using the passme and flash cart, I should be able to get online using any router I want to? Will I need special drivers installed on the computer that houses the router I'm using (in this case my Netgear)? Also, will I have to uninstall my original router drivers? Does that make sense or am I off on that? I guess I'm not sure how the DS is going to communicate with my PC using my router.
Also, it's interesting that you mention there's two different types of DS files. I wonder if the IRC client, for instance, will be programmed for both types, or just one?
Thanks again.

First off, thanks to sgstair for his hard work. Thanks to you guys for working on a FAQ.
Secondly, I'm completely new to the homebrew scene. I'm merely a consumer looking to use these applications once they're available. I don't know anything about flash cards, passme, etc. I've never purchased anything beyond the DS itself.
So I have some questions about the IRC client since that is my main interest.
Will you guys be providing step-by-step instructions for how to load the IRC client onto the DS? Is it as simple as loading it onto a flash cart and then putting the flash cart into the GBA slot and booting up? After that, can I connect to IRC through my compatible wi-fi router? Can I do all this without modifying my firmware?
As I say, I'm a complete newb when it comes to this. Any help is appreciated. Thank you and I hope these questions aren't redundant.

I love the idea of an IRC client, but my main choice is a web browser. I'd love to be able to surf while I'm out and about. Since I don't own a laptop, the DS would be the next best thing for me. Even if the first browser is text only, it's a step in the right direction.
