It's update time folks, with the Wii receiving a bevy of updates for not only the system but the Internet Channel and the Everybody Votes Channel. First off the Firmware Update will update your system to 3.1U/3.1E which allows to you click on links in messages to open the internet channel but not much more. The best updates come from Opera though with the Internet Channel now fully USB Keyboard Compatible. This means you can send favourites to friends and copy and paste text from a page into the search. No Changes for the Everybody Votes channel are evident, more as it happens. Video Inside.
