| Anyone know if the GBA games that were muli-player via the "linking cable"
(Zelda 4 swords, etc) will also work on a couple of DS's wirelessly?
For that matter, could a GBA SP with the wireless adapter talk to the DS?

Short answer - No. You need to keep your SP for GBA multiplayer games. The
wireless in the DS uses 802.11b and the SP wireless is something like blue
tooth..

A PDA with 802.11b capability?
Hardware wise, absolutetly -- they could talk to one another.
Software wise, unfortunetly there is no such software to take that type of
advantage of the DS's 802.11b (yet).
(I have a DS and I'm wanting a web browser and email client for the DS!
Such applications would be a natural fit for it. I'd even prefer to use the
DS for web/email over using my PDA's as the two LCD's could be put to very
good use. Got 802.11 at home and at work.)
