Sorry to get back late on this but yes it is possible and very affordable.
and works on all of the NDS hand helds.

The homebrew app is DSLIBRE and works on all of them. The DS/DS-Lite/DSi and DSi-XL.

You first need a DSi compatible flash card (Note these cards are backwards compatible with the older devices.

You buy the card online. All the rest of the software including the Homebrew software is free. I would not do any Firmware updates to the actual Flash module as it should work right out of the box.

So you need the Flash card which looks like a regular NDS game card.

There is a slot on it that will allow you to insert the micro-sdhc card with the OS software as well as any games/homebrew apps plus the ebooks, mp3's, jpeg pictures or even some full length movies. The size of the micro-sdhc depends on you and what you want to do with it.

If you search on the Internet for ezflash Vi as well as NDS homebrew you will find further information.

There is even a site where you can download most NDS games.

I have approx 30 epubs, 15 mp3's, 3 movies and approx 6 youtube videos on my sdhv card as well as over 100 game titles. I even carry a few titles for the very young so I can give a demo of what the DSi can do for the young ones.

If you have any issues just send me an email.
