Using my Nintendo DS as my personal organizer

So here I am playing along with my Nintendo DS, trying to see what else I can do aside from playing games on it. I know there's a lot more to it than just games, and I would like to have the chance to shut my critics up with regards to my choice of the Nintendo DS over the Sony PSP. I guess I've heard it all: better graphics, playing movies, playing music, browsing via wi-fi and the approval of the masses. I've grown numb about it too, since not only are they misinformed [you CAN play music, videos and browse using Wi-Fi with the DS, you just need to download and install the applications for them] they apparently missed the appeal of the nintendo DS, and the main reason why I got it.

I got the Nintendo DS for games, not much else. I have my iPod for playing music, and if I really need to watch videos, I'll watch it on my computer. But still I feel compelled to find something unique that I can do with my Nintendo DS that I can really use regularly.

Enter DSOrganize.

I found this software from www.dragonminded.com and followed the instructions to install it. It was nifty, it provided my Nintendo DS a calendar, a scribble pad, and a planner. It makes good use of the touch screen interface that the bottom screen of the DS provides. It is something that I can use occasionally since I carry around my Nintendo DS pretty often anyway.
