Except the audio.
The speakers are as much a step back as the screens are a step forward. The DS Lite audio is quiet and muffled in comparison to the huge audio the DS put out. Other people have mentioned this as a problem so I know it isn't just my unit.
I understand that they may have had to cut back on the speakers to reduce the size or power comsumption of the DS Lite. Again, I'm just surprised that not a single hardware review mentioned anything about this. Maybe I'm just greedy, but I'm definately very surprised and it'll take time to get used to this.

Any word on the next Phoenix Wright production run? I want dis game.
Also, will Trauma Center get another run? Its pretty hard to find now...
I posted about this earlier but no one seemed to know... have you heard anything about being able to download games from the Wii to the DS? Because the ability to buy SNES games through the Wii then download them to the DS and play em on the go would be so utterly awesome. Although I don't know how it could be saved to the DS... if they introduced blank carts that would make all kinds of bootleg problems...
