Reports from Japan have shed light on the...well, Lite. The difference in screen brightness is apparently comparable to the GBA/GBA SP jump. This is apparently the best feature of the new system - apart from, of course, the size drop.

The stylus is apparently longer, as it now slides in sideways and can hence afford to take up a bit more space. It seems unlikely that an old-style stylus will fit into the slot. The buttons on the DS have changed from the "clicky" GBA SP/DS Classic feel to the more responsive "mushier" feel of the GB Micro.

While some reports have listed the new power adapter as being the GB Micro one, it's not true. They're similar ports, but not the same. Tough luck.
