But why would people want to use a gaming machine for CRM? Check on campaign responses in between games of Mario Kart or Wii Sports tennis at home? Or would it be THE ultimate excuse to get a Wii for the office? Honestly speaking, it probably would be quite a pointless exercise, so why try it? My answer to that would have to be because I can. And that's when another thought struck me. I am an addict.

Microsoft CRM on the Nintendo Wii?
So a completely random (and probably pointless) thought occurred to me as I was walking home from the Lab last night. Would we be able to get Microsoft CRM working on the Wii's Internet channel? I managed to check my work email on the Wii the other day, really loving the wireless keyboard support I recently discovered (it's great - I now keep the keyboard next to the sofa, and we never let a pointless argument last longer than 5 minutes before pulling it out and doing a quick Goog Live Search and proving the superiority of my opinion), and how cool would it be to be able to use CRM on the Wii? And then I realised - CRM does a browser compatibility check, and if it didn't work on Firefox, my guess is it won't work on Opera. But then homebrew applications allow for all sorts of unsupported custom apps running on the Wii, surely something similar would allow for MS CRM?
