I've always said that the DS is a great idea, poorly implimented in the form it currently is. As in it feels cheap, looks terrible and the features all seemed to have been muddled together in a hurry. The games that have been released on the console however have been, in comparison to the PSP, nothing short of fantastic. I read through the game magazines and feel that I'd like to play the DS games but only if the console wasn't so poor. It is good then that I read the announcement of the new DS Lite.

Lik-Sang have them pencilled in at $169 (~£95) which is a great price. Hopefully it feels as good as it looks in the pictures. I'll be preordering myself one once I get my pay cheque (as I can't remember if Lik-Sang charge for pre-orders before shipping).
