Nintendo's DSi will be loaded with more RAM than the DS Lite, according to Opera CEO Jon von Tezchner. In an interview with TechTree, the man responsible for web surfing on Nintendo's handheld said that Opera would be sure to use the memory boost “efficiently.” That's great and all, but what does this mean for games? While the possibility of a completely DSi-only game is probably pretty low, maybe the next Nintendo creations take advantage of the new hardware for some DSi-exclusive features (like picture taking or music making). What do you think the RAM will be used for?
For me, RAM will be used for everything
1) To boost Web Surfing speed
2) To decrease load times in games, applications, etc.
I thought they were planning on making games that utilize the camera's features (aka DSi exclusive games)?

Well, the built-in web browser could handle caching of flash movies or something. Video recording/uploading/sharing, maybe an improved pico chat thing? with pics/video. I've never had "load lag" or anything similar on a DS game, but they might be able to squeeze out a higher throughput or something! I'm pretty excited!!!!!
