“A new iteration of the Nintendo DSi™ system will be introduced in Japan on November 21, 2009. To be known as Nintendo DSi LL in Japan, and as Nintendo DSi XL in North America and Europe, it will offer a screen 93% larger than the current Nintendo DS Lite with a better view angle, an additional longer touch screen stylus, and preinstalled Nintendo DSiWare™ software. The new version will arrive in North America and Europe in the first quarter of calendar year 2010.” – Nintendo spokesperson

Looks like the new DSi will indeed come Stateside early next year as well as Europe.  Anyone holding out on getting a DSi until the XL comes out?
