I dunno why, but I get the destinct feeling that all these mobile phones and mobile consoles, mp3 players and all the rest of it are all trying to be far too much and so they lose something along the way.
If I wanna phone someone i'll pick up the dedicated device I own for such things, a phone... If I want to listen to music i'll do the same but with a dedicated mp3 player... If I want to play games i'll use a console or a computer, If I want to take pictures i'll use my camera. I can't comfortably do all 4 things at the same time properly, so I won't try. The quality is never going to be as good as dedicated individual products either. Yeah they may save a little space, but that's besides the point.
Anyway, seems like a bit of bad marketing on the part of Nintendo by not getting the new version in the shops over here in time for Christmas, i'm sure people who may have been keeping an eye out for one may end up getting an iPhone or something instead, in otherwords, one way or another, it's going to cost Nintendo money.
