Hi Jl12, 3DS guy here with answers to your questions. No its not a kiosk unit its a test unit. Kiosk units are retail units with auto-booting demo games
*Q:Do you have a retail 3DS unit? I'm curious if your test unit will communicate with a retail 3DS unit. ( downloadplay, street-pass, etc. )
A:Yes I also have a retail 3DS unit and the two units do not communicate through streetpass, download play (tried with Steel Diver) or when trying to transfer Miis. I can't even exchange friend codes. As a note it communicates fine with a retail Wii and retail ds (or retail 3ds in ds mode)
*Q:Does it connect to (production) nusd update servers for any updates?
A:It tries to connect to retail update servers (found this out by using a proxy server) but it errors out.
*Q:Do you have any other software or hardware with it? ( firmware updates? rewritable CTR cards? etc. )
A:No i do not have any extra hardware or software except for a CTR card which has a game demo on it (made for test units and dev units and will not work on retail units)(I could take a picture if of it you like), though I am not sure if you can write to it as it is the same size as a retail cart not chunky like in some photos floating around. If I had the hardware to dump it, I would as I am assuming it has unsigned code on it(could be useful for analysis), as it has to be run from the dev menu.
*Q:Can you get more of them however/wherever you received yours from?
A:Not likely, it was hard to obtain. It is possible though.
*Q:Would you be willing to run pre-compiled apps imported through your dev menu on your test unit? [and if so do you have an email to send them to]
A:Yes I would love to (with in reason), they have to be in the .CIA format to be installed from the SD card. If you do make any, send the email with a description of what the application is suppose to do and any instructions. And if you want I can send screenshots and feedback I make about the applications you or others may send. You can send them to "devguy@hotmail.com.au". BTW message me at my talk page so I know to check for an email.
*Q:Would you be willing to lend or rent your unit out? I'm pretty sure you won't but it wouldn't hurt to ask.
A:No I don't really want to lend it out.
All the best--[[User:3dsguy|3dsguy]] 18:19, 27 October 2011 (CEST)
