That should say includes VGA camera, which is pretty useless in this day an age.

Other than putting low quality images into a game for fun it would be pretty useless otherwise.

The battery life is also pretty crap compared to the ds lite, the screen is also bigger but with the same res so no real gain.

The addition of an SD card reader is nice, for mp3 etc. But I have a dozen other devices that can do all of that stuff better.

Overall I think I will stick with my DS Lite until a game comes along that requires the DSi that I actually want.

If the camera faced the user that could lead to some interesting games involving face recognition etc :|

Anyone with a copy of Guitar Hero On Tour will be wanting to keep their regular DS Lite then seeing as how they wont be able to play it on this. There are also other games that use the GBA slot so those are going to have problems too.
