Why I'd buy this;

- Digital Camera

Hey, it beats phones, but there must be SOME way to upload them.

-Larger screens

Sure, The bigger they are, the better.

- "Cameras"

Alright, cool. Facial expressions and such.

- Built in Web browser

Now that's something worth getting, especially since it's becoming the PSP. I prefer to play Advance Wars on it.

Why I Wouldn't buy this;

- Thinness

Come on people, it's thin enough, we're not trying to make it anorexic here.

- Mii Support

No need. Simple as that.

- DS Ware

Great... Another Xbox Live Marketplace..

- No GBA slot

Ok, this really peeved me. I really enjoyed playing the oldies like Fire Emblem and Megaman on my DS. Now that's gone. What the heck?

I bet 3 months after this comes out. One of the companies like EZ Flash that makes the memory card for the DS will make a new one that allows GBA games to be played on it for those who want it. The GBA bios and emulator is so small that it can be fit anywhere. Thats why they have one on the ipod.

I'm glad they are going to make a SD slot for this. Its officially pushing the PSP out of the picture. I love my psp but if this can prove to do everything the psp does and still have a better game selection then its over for Sony.

Don't care for it.

I'm waiting for this.

I love my PSP, but this will crush both handhelds since it will allow emulation without having to homebrew anything and risk bricking your system.

AND it's open source so you can hack it without infringing anykind of copyright.

Looks cool, but in my opinion all this features should have been there on the first ds ever made, like, you cant expect that I just toss my DS lite away just to get a DS with camera, If I didnt already have lite, DSi could have been the one. Hope they really make a difference with the next thing they come up with
