I was finally able to secure a Wii, thanks to my frind Brian. I did end up paying a littler over retail, but it was defintily worth it to snag one before the holidays. My wife really wanted one so I was tying to come through as a nice suprise...I also picked up Zelda for her because she is an avid fan of the entire series. Now, the mission is to locate a few more remotes, becase beating the computer at tennis and basebal just doesnt' seem to satisfy my competitive spirit ;)

My first 24 hours with the Wii wasn't all sunshine though. For some reason, it refuses to connect with my Linksys WRT54G wireless router (most popular router on the planet)! I do have WPA encryption enabled (which Wii supports), but i can't even get it to connect with no encryption at all...finally, i was able to get a connection to my neighbors Linksys router...which is the same brand/model !?! And to top it all off, i don't even have the option of running a hard line to it...now that just wrong!
