I don`t think there`s actually an official release date for the `DS Lite` as yet. Apparently it;s expected to hit stores sometime in the summer.

Hasn`t been officially announced over here. It is selling obcenely well over in Japan. The DS outsells the PSP over there by a huge amount. In my opinion, in no small part due to the touch screen which allows original games that just aren`t possible on the PSP.
I reckon it should be out by then - announcement at E3 next week?

We will pay the price but we will not count the cost..

Bloke in Game (Leeds) told me September last week. Hopefully an official announcement over the next few weeks.
