It still could be true. They could just be dropping the price of the DSL to $99 and then creating a DSMicro w/o GBA slot @ $99-$129.
i.e. two skus. This is similar to the GBMicro. It didn't have all of the features of the previous GBA/SP. Granted, I don't think it sold all that well, but, there are plenty of DS users who probably never use the GBA slot. I know I didn't, and from what I know it is used for, I wouldn't.
So, if there was a cheaper/slimmer/brighter/longer battery/better in some form model that didn't have it. I would buy it.
