Implications of DS being flat in it's fifth year?

Very true, but the DS still makes older handhelds look pathetic in sales. Only when you combine Gameboys with Gameboy Color, which is a more significant difference than those between DS models, do you have anything that compares to DS. Undoubtedly DS will vastly outsell those two combined by the end of it's life unless it's cut short by it's successor.

Gameboy had much less appeal to adults though.

Yeah much less appeal to adults the gameboy had, that's when I think DSi XL could be the total opposite of that, many many adults will buy the DSi XL.  If it's a big hit and has great legs then I can see DS easily topping 145 Million therefore topping PS2 before 1st January 2011.
