Best DSi Cart?

What is the best DSi cart so far? I don't really care about a million features that I'll never use. All I want is something that works like the M3 Simply aka R4.

Does the DSi 1.4 firmware block all flash carts or just the Supercard DSonei ?

the 1.4 firmware blocked all flash carts but they have all had firmware updates of hardware updates to fix them so they all work now (AFAIK)

From experience and for future possible updates I would suggest getting a card that is updateable without the need of a console/another console such as the M3i Zero or the Supercard Onei these both do not need another console to perform the update :)

Handy if you do not have access to a dslite/dsphat or DSi that has a lower firmware :)

How is the gui on the M3i Zero? Do the games load quickly or is it super slow like the DSonei? Is it similar to the M3 Simply or M3 Real ?

I own a SC DSonei and I don't really like it. I've experienced the Acekard2i and I prefer the simplicity, ease of use and short load times.
All I care about is that the flashcart is reliable and it works (play games). I don't care about moonshell, slow-mo option, real time save,
or whatever else it might offer. I had a CycloDS and that cart was pretty good. Too bad they don't have a CycloDSi, that would be my
first choice.

M3i Zero uses same loaders/kernel files as the M3 REAL its just the hardware of the card that's different to enable usage on the DSi and the addition of being usb updatable :)

That answers my question, except I have no experience with the M3 Real, lol. I read the M3 Real wasn't that good?

M3 makes solid products, top of the line. The SuperCard also makes top of the line products, BUT, as far as updates for game compatibility goes, the leaders are M3 and Akaio (sp?) (Acekard). The Supercard team seems to take their sweet time with updates, though there cards are solid and (like the M3 but UNLIKE the Acekard) they are firmware upgradeable. If you don't have a DSi then you don't really care about your card having firmware upgrade-ability. Also the M3 Zero is the ONLY card of the bunch to work on all 3 DS systems (DS phat, DS Lite, and DSi). The other cards require different cards for the phat/lite and the DSi.

I brought my first ever M3 product to use with a 1.4 DSI; it works but I find the non sakura interface extremely slow and clunky - worse than the SCOne interface which was bad enough to make me switch to other cards ;)

Sakura is OK I suppose but I can't belive that the two interfaces are updated seperately - have to use the touchpod to play the new Mario and Luig
