NeoGAF has claims he has stumbled upon a deep Nintendo secret buried in a program's source 'javascript' files of the Wii Shop Channel.
var NO_WIFI = 0; /* no WIFIFREE or WIFIPAY */
var WIFI_PARTIALLY_CHARGED = 1; /* partially charged WIFI */
var WIFI_FREE = 2; /* WIFIFREE only */
var WIFI_ALL_CHARGED = 3; /* all charged WIFI */
That looks like something about the Pay to Play service, while he also claims that the above code relates via 'hints' that demos and downloadable content maybe coming even at a small charge in addition to the Wii shop channel.
Basicly from what I understand the above code is registering variables into the run-time of the program. The bottom one is the most interesting as it put it in and sets it to a high '3', plus has in it's context 'WIFI_ALL_CHARGED'. Odds are this is for when you look at an item; so the wii can figure out what type of payment is required(?)
