.... I bet they wouldn't take a battering like eldest's DS has had. Not from my eldest, she's happy playing on it, but when she leaves it out my youngest daughter (who is 3) gets hold of it and gives it some real grief (I'm talking whacking it on the table, bending it back as far as it'll go, poking the screen with the stylus).

Now if an iPod can handle that much abuse and still work flawlessly without any scratches then hey that's great. Still prefer the DS though.

Grenade, because the DS Lites my kids have seem to be bomb proof.

P.S. Yes I know there are flaws with some DS Lite's with breaking hinges, my step daughter has a second hand one which wasn't so lucky and needs repairing. I didn't mean all DS Lites are bomb proof, just the Pink one my eldest daughter has.
