The answer is yes. I had a DSphat and upgraded to the lite on US release day. It is much better (and in the US only $10 more). It is smaller, lighter, the screens are brighter, the stylus is much better, the serial numbers don't rub off, and the power button has been moved (used to be right next to the d-pad, and it was easy to accidentally turn off, along with other small changes. The only downside to it is that GBA games (and the DS rumble pak) sticks out 1cm, so I can't just leave my rumble pak in all the time anymore.

There is no problem for me cause I have the money for the Wii ($250) and $150 dollars exactly for the DS Lite and also maybe a game so there's no problem for me

Yep, it is a great buy. I finally picked up one yesterday and man am I impressed. It's designed gorgeously, it's must lighter than the orignal DS, the screens are tons brighter, the stylus is bigger, and it's just awesome to look at. It makes playing the old GBA games much funner because the colors are much more fleshed out, and the same goes with the DS games. If you have $130 to spare, or if you've been interested in the DS from the beginning but still haven't picked one up, I definately recommend the Lite. It's probably my favorite hand-held console ever.
