Nope.  Mine is Navy.  The crack is in exactly the same place, so it's definitely a defect in manufacturing.
well, so it really is a manufacturing defect....

seems like Nintendo will have a lot of fixing and replacing to do....

Eeeek, I just ordered mine (import Ice Blue) and this thread is freaking me out!
I hope it doesn't (or will) have the stupid crack thingy. *sigh*

Heh, same thing happened to my brother's original DS, but not my Lite =D

I knew Nintendo wasn't going to fix it, but I sent it in anyway.  They DID fix it, but attached a note that basically said "We shouldn't have fixed it, so don't do it again."

My lite is still fine.  I use it frequently and I got it at launch, so maybe I am lucky.

I agree that the cracks in the DS Lite isn't an epidemic, but it shouldn't be ignored.  The fact that there are defects is something that should not be ignored considering Nintendo hardware has been known to be very good when it comes to hardware.

If cracks are happening, people should immediately inform Nintendo about it.  The last thing that should ever happen is for Nintendo to get complacent because people aren't reporting these problems and continue to manufacturer DS Lites without solving the problem of the cracks.

I received my Ice Blue DS Lite from Asia and it looks really awesome!
No cracks so far so it's all good I guess.
Here's a picture of it, for those who are curious to see a "real" pic (i.e. not a stock image!):
