Im not sure where to put this. I was thinking that it would be nice to incorparate a "network folder".Place a folder in the main directory that is linked to a computer. This way you could have infinite number of roms whenever you were withoin wireless range. you could also hyave acces to  your entire media library. This would would even allot programs such as moonshell which currently does not have streaming capabilities to access  files from abother source than the flash card because it would appear as just any other folder. Ofcourse i realize that there will be some issues with this but i beleive we can remedy them.

i'm not sure I understand your concept.. do you mean that somehow the supercard would load roms from a network drive via wireless 802.11?

I dont think it's possible, as the supercard's kernel has no room for that type of instruction set...

i guess you could use any rom under 256mbit, and load it from ram, but it would be very slow

Nintendo DS RAM = 2Mbytes ( 16 MBIT ) don't expect to load commercial roms on RAM.

supercard ram= 256mbit

Yes, it would be painfully slow indeed.  I use DSFTP and a script to pull and archive all my DS and gba .sav files, and I have to grab a cup of java before it even completes the process; I'm not talking roms here--just .sav and .sci files!

It shouldn't take so long to download files with DSFTP.  I've downloaded homebrew to my Supercard using DSO at a much faster rate. Perhaps DSFTP will get faster. Also keep an eye on WifiTransfer.
