Its just terrifying how much money i'll be inevitably paying for the 15000th new model of the same DS, which probably has less actual power, technology and actual fun behind it than your average Japanese scientific calculator.
You do realize that the 3DS is NOT actually a DS, right? It's power is comparable to a Wii or even above it, whereas the DS is only about as capable as a Nintendo 64. Also, you can "shut off" the 3D, without losing any of the graphics, there's a slider on the side for that, not to mention that it's going to have a Virtual Console (like the Wii, but with Game Boy and Game Boy Color games at the minimum), be compatible with DSi applications, two cameras on the front to allow you to take 3D pictures, a 3rd camera on the front so you can take pictures of yourself [or use your face in a game], has the flat equivalent of a control stick, a motion sensor, augmented reality support, a messaging service that works through wifi, AND a gyrometer all built-in, not to mention that the screen resolution is going to be much better than the DS'.

I was planning to get a 3DS anyway since my original DS is more or less tanked.
Isn't it only supposed to be like $250 anyway? Doesn't seem like a bad price, I mean that's around how much the original one was at release.
Apparently the 3DS is coming out like this summer?
So I guess it won't be a long wait unless *cough* delays *cough*
Actually, it's going to be out March 27th in the US. There's going to be a LOT of huge titles in June though, with Animal Crossing 3DS, Mario Kart 3DS, Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time 3DS, Kid Icarus: Uprising, Star Fox 64 3DS, and Super Monkey Ball all coming out on the same day, 6/2.
