I've been favorably impressed with the Slim (it's not a Sony thing, because I admire my DS too). Solid construction, buttons are well-crafted, and the weight reduction may seem like a minor thing, but it's so much more comfortable when you play for extended periods of time (e.g. rounds of Jeanne D'Arc). It's a hefty multimedia machine too, just plug the USB cord into your computer and you have yourself a budget version of an iPod. The thing is, Skype is just the beginning, the Slim will be getting plenty more multimedia functionality in the future, so if you're into portable media, it's a terrific investment.
