Has anyone got one? Is it worth it over the DS lite?

The reason I would want to buy one over the lite is the web browser, how well does this work and it is an actually usable browser? Also, can it connect to WPA-PSK encrypted wifis?

The DS Lite can be used as a web browser too can't it? Either way you will have to buy a little USB WiFi thing

As far as I can see the only upgrades with the DSi are a bigger screen, cameras and I'm pretty sure that it is supposed to run faster, I'm not sure on that one though.

The DSI's brighter screen does wonders. Also the browser comes built into the dsi as opposed to having to buy a cartridge to run. What USB wifi thing? the DSI can access the internet through any normal wifi access point. DSI supports WPA when using the browser or playing newer games, but older games still need WEP for online play which the DSI can do as well. I would say it's worth it. Internet use is decent, usable, the not the fastest but works well enough for me when I need it.

It is worth it if you do not plan to play GBA games on your DSi.
