Sorry, but the fact is, that even the casual will end up getting the DS, purely because of the games on the DS that the iPhone won't have, like Brain age and Nintendogs. Also the fact is that kids will continue to get a DS for the games as well.

Sure some people might decide that they don't need a DS, but these will be a very small portion of the population, its why the DS and DS software still sells so strongly even though the system has been out since 2005, most people still see a need for the DS, even if they have an iPhone or Ipod, because Apple can't deliver what Nintendo can.
