That's some terrible journalism. They've got most of the facts wrong.

Correction:
It doesn't have 2 touch screens.
It's not 2.6mm thin (!!!)
Nothing is known about an MP3-player. AAC, yes, MP3, who knows.
As far as I know there is no 3MP camera. All they've said is a 0.3MP camera.

What's up with the two-touch screen rumour? My boss thought it had that, too. It wouldn't even make sense.

Heh, you were talking about a 3MP camera. Both cameras are 0.3MP. So yeah, what was up with that rumor?

Regardless of megapixels, I think two cameras on the DS is extremely stupid engineering.

My little cell phone has a camera that swivels on an axis, so I can turn it to face me, or I can turn it to face away from me.

I guess it was more hopeful than information on the part of many. If it really is two .3mp cameras, then this product is pretty much worthless.

gamespot is saying the outward facing camera is 3mp also.

hard to say really without nintendo outright listing what it is exactly. seems to be hard info to find.
