$130, eh? Excellent. Nintendo continues to underpromise and overdeliver.

...Except when it comes to picking names for their systems that everyone is happy with.
“...there are those who would...say, '...If I could just not have to work everyday...that would be the most wonderful life in the world.' They don't know life. Because what makes life mean something is purpose.  The battle. The struggle.  Even if you don't win it.” - Richard M. Nixon

All I can say is it's about time they told us the release date, though I will probably hold off on getting one untill they release more colors(hopefully red)!

What's so shocking about the price? There is no sane reason to charge more for the Lite than the standard DS, in fact it should be cheaper because there's less material involved.
The screens?

Apparently you can enable the DSLite brightness settings on the DS's screens by overwriting the DS's firmare with the DSLite's firmware (which is an unauthorized procedure, and would undoubtedly void your warranty). But that drains the battery faster.

The DSLite has a bigger battery.

eh, you might be able to make the original DS brighter, but I doubt it's still on the same level.
