The DS Lite is more compact (smaller, same screen size though), has more settings of brightness (including BRIGHTER settings), and...That's about it. It has a few design changes that make sense as well, for example, the microphone is in the center of the DS Lite instead of the left bottom like it was on the DS.
Worth getting one if you already have a regular DS? No, not really.
Worth getting if you don't have a DS and want to buy one? Definitely. Nice improvements. Also easier to fit into your pocket. The old DS is a little bit too bulky for pocket carrying.

The ds lite is brighter and lighter then the orginal ds. The colors are better too on the ds lite, and the visual angle is also better. The stylus pen for the ds lite is longer and thicker, which relieves me of all those wonderful cramps i get in my hands when i play my regular ds. I imported the ds lite from japan, and the ds lite wins hands down. But of course the release of the ds lite will mean a drop in the ds price, another thing to consider

The DS Lite has four different levels of brightness (on max brightness it is BRIGHT!) The system is overall thinner and lighter in weight. The power button has been moved to the side. Start and select are now smaller buttons moved under the ABYX buttons. Also moved is the mic button... it used to be on the bottom lip of the system and now it is smack dab in the middle of the unit between the screens. Oh and the stylus is thicker and now slides out of the bottom right side.
Am I going to buy one? I always thought the DS was sorta cool, but I never wanted one. Having spent time playing with the "Lite," I really want one.

The DS Lite has a brighter screen and wheighs lighter, I think those are the only differences. They cost about the same as a regular DS.

The nintendo ds will have built in wifi so that you won't have to buy an adapter to play online game with people. All you need is the ds lite and a wireless router.

I didn't even get the regular DS when it came out...I didn't see the point of it. Two screens? That's WAY too complicated for a video game...ATARI RULES!
