If you pick up one of Nintendo's new 3D handhelds, the 3DS, you'll have more than a 3D gaming machine that doesn't require glasses; you'll also have something you can use to stream 3D movie trailers in a Starbucks. The future!
Nintendo is bringing an "eStore" to the 3DS, a place to stream 3D movie and game trailers and check out game screenshots. And hey, that'll be one place to see 3D trailers without having to go see a 3D movie, so that's cool.
As for the hotspots, Nintendo is teaming up with AT&T to allow 3DS users to connect to over 10,000 of AT&T's Wi-Fi hotspots, which are all over the place in locations such as Starbucks. So that's something!
