I also learned the hard way after the DS phat.

What? My grey ds phat has been perfect. The battery life is unbelievable, it works after being dropped so many times, and its hinges are phenomonal. My dslite broke though. It sort of works but the bottom screen glitches when I play games. It's really noticeable when I play Castlevania though for some reason.

My original DS was not so lucky. top screen broke like the second or third time I dropped it, which was about 4 years after i got it back in 2004. It fell from my lap when I was at my desk. it fell from 2 feet (0.61 meters), and the top LCD screen cracked. Probably hit at just the right spot. Lucky me. Anyway, I purchased a replacement top screen. But even with the replacement instructions, my lack of expertise caused me to screw it up somehow, and now the DS won't turn on at all. So, I just decided to give up and get a DS Lite. Now I'm ready to upgrade to the 3DS XL.

 

Edit: The hinges still work great, and I prefer the button style of the fat DS to the DS Lite. Too bad I screwed up the circuitry
