Basic design question - where to put the a API connection class - extend the model?

[quote author="MEM" date="1286571670"]Yes that last option was what I was talking about.

It works. I used MY_Model the MY_Model extends Model and, on one of MY_Model method I have a database connection class call.

Just wondering if this is a nice way of doing so...

That's actually a good way to go about it. I would have probably put it in the constructor for each Model where I needed it, but that's not very DRY.
