    you know how the 3ds has a cradle that you put it in to charge does that mean we wont be able to charge and play on it at the same time?

    There will be a cable which can connect into both the 3ds and the cradle

    Does the charging cradle serve any other use besides a fancy way of charging it?

    P.S. Congratulations on your 100th post, h.f.!

    Does the Charging Cradle enhance SpotPass in any way?
    If so, what does it do?
    How is using the Charging Cable different from using the Cradle?
    In order to use the Cradle, don't you have to insert the Charging Cable into it?

    to use the cradle you need to put the cable into it, the craddle makes it easier to put it down and leave.

    The charging cradle increases upload and download speed.
    As cloud8521 says, the cable will connect into the back of the cradle. It doesnt have a different effect on charging.

    I noticed in the Japanese Advert for the 3DS where there all running around automaticaly sending each other items, that at the end of the video when the woman puts it into the cradle, suddenly the Wifi and anouther light come on, and they leave the camera on that sceen to make sure you see this happen, so there must be something important for the cradle hence it is not an optional item, it comes with the 3DS :p

    are you forgetting what I said above? The cradle only increases internet speed. You can use spotpass when you are on a street or in a building.

    streetpass is free. It collects user data of passer bys
    Spotpass is free. It connects to wifi spots to download stuff
