CloseI couldn't find a topic about this. I looked. Sorry if I missed it.
Does anyone have one? How is it compared to the DS lite? Ever since I bought a PSP, my DS lite screen seems so puny to me, so I'm thinking of getting the DSi, but it is overpriced, and a .8cm isn't that amazing.
Any thoughts from people who have one? I hear while they're selling like hotcakes in Japan, they're not doing so hot in NA.

I can give you a rundown. I picked one up on launch day.
1) The screens are really good. Very large and very bright.
2) Usability is up considerably. There are three LEDs now: charging, WiFi active, and power/battery low. You can tap the power button inside any game to do a soft reset back to the home menu. The home menu was redesigned and is much nicer. You are able to eject games while on the home menu.
3) The shoulder buttons feel a bit better than the DS Lite, but still not great. This is actually my biggest complaint with the DS line.
4) The matte finish is actually kind of bothersome to me. It looks great, but it just feels a bit off.
I would definitely choose a DSi over a DS Lite. Notice how I didn't mention anything about the camera. It's because it is really stupid.
Also, you can download games on it which is neat. Mighty Flip Champs is fun.
