"We believe it is likely that the next version of the Game Boy Advance SP will ship as early as this holiday, ahead of most expectations of calendar year 2006," wrote P.J. McNealy of American Technology Research.

The new system, he predicts, will launch at a $99 price point, with prices on the Game Boy Advance falling to $49. Nintendo DS prices, he wrote, will likely remain unchanged.

Nintendo representatives were unavailable for comment.

I personally don't find this very likely, and would tread all over the DS (which is actually doing very well).  Even though this is to be an announcement to take the wind out of Sony's sales, I think it is a very 'Capcom --> Resident Evil 4' like announcement, which is just a bad idea.

EDIT: I meant to put this in Fast Forward but Ian Sane already beat me to it HERE
