Nintendo DSi users will be able upload pictures taken with the handheld’s cameras directly to Facebook from today.  

The new functionality will be available through a downloadable update which will allow interaction with the social networking site through wireless connections. While reviewing pictures taken through either of the handheld’s cameras, users can upload their pictures via the Facebook icon on the system’s touch screen.

"Facebook and Nintendo DSi build on the trend of personalisation that is so important to consumers," said Cammie Dunaway, Nintendo of America's executive vice president of sales & marketing. "We're giving people the tools to express themselves in creative new ways and show off the results to their friends and family on Facebook."

This is the first thing I've seen the DSi able to do that's actually relevant to me

That goes double for me. Though I generally use my phone for Facebook, so I see no reason to change my DS Lite to a DSi seeing as how I can still play GBA games on my Lite.
