DSi, will you be getting one?

I'm holding off until I see what games come out for it, what the homebrew community can do with it, and whether or not they come out with a fully NEW model sometime later.
This just doesn't feel like a properly thought out increment. It feels like the DS lite v1.5, not the DS lite v2.0. If they were going to remove the GBA slot, you'd think they would at least have added built in rumble.

Right now, the no GBA slot is a huge thing, but makes sense to not include it. The DS could never play GB or GBC games, so if you wanted to play those, you needed a normal GBA or GBA SP or a GBC to play them. The more likely one to get would be the GBA, so if you've got that, you don't need the DS to play any of the GBA games at all. Nintendo is also trying to make the DS a completely separate entity from the Gameboy brand, removing GBA slot from it would be part of that move.
