DS Lite Museum Guide In Action!

In every Japanese museum, there are women who sit in chairs in the corner. Sit and just sit. What they are doing is beyond me. Keeping watch, I guess. On you. And me. Here's something a little easier to grapple with. The National Western Fine Arts Museum in Tokyo is providing visitors with a DS Lite to guide them around. There's a special cartridge that provide details on all the art. Each gallery is outfitted with a special access point that funnels the relevant info to your screen. Browse away via the touch screen. There's even a print function, enabling visitors to select art they like, print it out and collect it before they leave the museum.
