I have had mine a few days and it is OK. Just OK, I am not blown away by it exactly. The thing that I have found is that it is real clumsy and uncomfortable for me to play with the stylus and pad at the same time. I found that while playing you really only look at one screen at a time anyway so in my opinion they would have been much better off with one large touch screen rather than two small ones. I really haven't found that the two screens really add anything to the game experience yet. It just seems gimmicky to me right now. The best part is that is plays GBA stuff backlit, but the catch here is GBA games play with a border because of the resolution difference making the game screen even SMALLER than a real GBA. The 3D and sound is very good quality, much better than on any current handheld. It always seems to come back to the fact that the screen seems too damn small for me. I honestly think the PSP will kill it when it comes out. The DS has the advantage of being first, and making the holiday sales rush but that is about it.
I just got my DS this morning from Canada and I think it's good, played Metroid demo which is very good. Can't really do much with Pictochat at the moment because not many in my area probably own a DS yet. Maybe when it arrives in the UK i'll able multiplay or send messages on the bus, etc....
