I meant that the Nintendo DS and the Iliad would force me to lessen the security of my network where four PCs are connected securely over WPA2.
I am mostly concerned with identity theft. I live in a densely populated area where there are at least 6 to 7 WLANs visible at any given time. Having a secure network means that I can put less effort into intranet security (I know, a big word for such a small network ;-))

Sounds sensible. I would be willing to live with a few Iliad shortcomings where it comes to web browsing but I guess I will never know if the limitations would be acceptable unless I buy one. Right now, I am biding my time and hope for improvements with every new firmware revision.
