DSVision's virtual store lacks virtual goods

According to Spencer over at Siliconera, the DSVision store isn't all it's cracked up to be. The launch of the service has left him wanting, considering there are only 30 items available in the online store, with users expecting much, much more from the launch of the service.

He does admit that the pricing is favorable, however. Episodes of television shows are only $2, with digital manga fetching $3 per chapter. The books on available on the service range from free for a trial to $6 for a 1,000-page novel.

Did any of you bother to import it?

I haven't been able to get one yet, but I made a DSvision account and downloaded the PC app.

For some reason I can't even sign into my account, so I can't download anything. :\ I'd like to get some of the free stuff, but it just won't work.

I wouldn't trust it to get of, sure if the content was bought from amazon or something, but not from some small store.

Acekard 2 / Supercard DS one / ... + microSD + moonshell + eRightSoft Super anyone?

8 GB of movies and series for just over 50 dollar.
