I saw all this stuff appear yesterday (youtube and the first news reports in finnish) on 4chan, literally minutes after the event. The normal news networks didn't catch up for nearly 8 hours.
"how is Nintendo going to block users from playing emulated games via the web?" by not running/using java?
As far as I have seen there are very few (if any) flash emulators. I also haven't seen anything about running java applets on the Wii.
Another major obsticale is the fact that the emulated keyboard through the WiiMote will make for a strange experience playing any kind of web based game (flash or other...)

Here in the UK, NTL uses fibre optics for interweb and TV. We have quite a comprehensive selection of channels, but like you say as it is 'streamed' it can take a while to change channels, in fact i was told by a technician it can technically take upto 45 seconds:\
As the broadband comes down the same line, when i'm torrenting like crap you can tell by the TV as the picture isnt so defined and it takes longer to change channel. The funny thing is, a friend of mine on a very similar NTL deal got packeted by some T3+ a year or so back - don't piss people off on irc - and the TV outright didnt work for nearly three days.
This is pretty cool, I like the idea of kids coming into contact with OSS at an early age, but I can't see this as saving money.
All the IT teachers I have come into contact with in primary/secondary schools (the last seven years - I just left school) have very little technical knowledge other than how to use MS office, so surely there will be training costs.
