I know i might sound ambitious but is there anyway i can get internet channel on wii for free. I mean this is pathetic because Opera Browser on PC is free and i just deleted it because I am pissed at them but is there any chance we can do a partition to get Internet Channel for free.

Peoples dont call me stingy everyone has a right to a free browser.

LOL,
a petition isn't going to do anything.
People, including myself, are willing to pay 500 wii points or $7.50

If they don't charge, how do they make money??
and it was actually free till july last year for people that bought a wii early.

sucks i guess. Do you have to pay every month or once you've downloaded it is free for ever?

Just once it's downloaded it's there forever. Unless I suppose if they come out with another update for it. There's no monthly subscription anyway. And I suppose it's true that if you got it early you got it free, I still have it and I never paid for it.

Edit: Way too slow, and yes I was wondering about the trial part. Anyone know what the difference is if you pay for it? What is there now is good enough for what I use, not that I hardly use it.

I got it for 500 wii points. That works out to be 7.50 to 8.50 bucks (depending on how much you buy your wii card for). And I'm Australian may I add.

If your so hung up about buying it then don't get it. But it sounds like you want to internet it up on your wii so just get all your bum change together and mow the lawn or something to get it.

Good luck with that petition.

I bought it and I'm buggered if I know why. I have yet to actually find a use for it except one time when I couldn't be arsed getting out of bed and checking my emails. That power button on the Wii remote is freakin brilliant

Anyway internet on a Wii is slow and the resolution of the Wii is so low everything is gigantic and doesn't fit in the damned screen. FAIL!
