Nintendo DS Lite pretty in pink
Fans of the pink gadget, rejoice! Nintendo has announced that its DS Lite handheld video game system will come in Noble Pink in addition to the previously announced Crystal White, Ice Blue and Enamel Navy shades.

The DS Lite, a lighter version of the popular Nintendo DS, hit the Japanese market in March, and handhelds in the new color will be available starting July 20. They come with a pink stylus too.
I got a kick out of Techie Diva's take on the new rosy console: "Don't know how to discourage your boyfriend from picking up your new Nintendo DS Lite? Wait for the pink one!"
