Gone is the Game Boy Advance cartridge slot, replaced with an SD card slot for loading it up with music. The DS Lite will continue to be available if you're into GBA games or don't really care about a camera that makes cellphone cameras look super-powerful. It drops in Japan on November 1st, arriving elsewhere sometime next year.

Nintendo DSi Quick Pros & Cons List
GadgetReview —
... editor, voice recorder
Cons:
$40 more that DS Lite
No slot for Gameboy Advance games or peripherals like Guitar Hero keypad
Battery life shorter than DS Lite
Only plays AAC music files, no MP3!!!!
So, lots of good features but some potentially crippling bads for some people. The no MP3 compatibility is retarded, and that won’t go over well I’m sure. Anything I missed?
