Same here.
I'm glad to see Nintendo confirmed the next DS. Maybe the rumours I posted earlier this month are true after all. The important bit of my threads post:

The key findings were:
- That the handheld's two screens - yes, it's going dual-screen again - are not only bigger, but the "gap between the two screens is negligible", meaning they can serve as either two separate screens or as a a single large display.
- It's got an accelerometer in it.
- It's expected, based on the handheld's dev kit, to have performance similar to a GameCube. Meaning it has similar performance to a Wii. Handheld Mario Galaxy and Wind Waker? Yes please.
- Many of the developers said their games would be finished towards the end of the year, suggesting a late 2010 release.
And that suggests a reveal of the console at this year's E3 Expo in Los Angeles. It's important to note at this stage that these are all unconfirmed rumours, but then, they do sound awfully sensible, don't they?

A 3D, duel-screen, touch-screen, accelormeter enabled, GameCube performance level hand held sounds amazing.
The idea of 3D without glasses makes me think of some kind of hologram but I doubt we are that advanced at a affordable price, if at all.
