Cool that they are getting that working. Awesome, I'm going to have to get a broadband adapter.

I'm picking one up this week, I'll message you once I get set-up. We should get decent speeds since we are both in Texas.

I'm heading out of town from the 18th to the 5th of Jan... maybe after that we can play (school's out, so I'll be up north LAN-ing it with my family and friends).

Please let us know how the connectivity is. If it's pretty smooth, I'll go grab me an adapter, and play with ya'll, if you want another that is.

Yes, please post your experiences using warp pipe. I'm curious as to how smoothly it will run.

This is really sad to see you have to get on a web forum to find someone to play DD with. Nintendo really gotta give more support to online gaming.

Maybe if this warp pipe thing goes well they might. They are aware of it from what I have heard.

PhuzBox and I played a little bit tonight. I'm in San Antonio and he's in Houston.

There was a little lag, but I'm trying to work a kink out now.

More later.

El Scorcho (San Diego, CA) and I (San Antonio, TX) tried a few times to connect but no dice.

Just to add insult to injury... I tried linking up with a guy in Dallas... no go there too.
