DS lite to Hit America Mid May?

GoNintendo is reporting on a rumour it received from a Reader about the Nintendo DS Lite’s american release date and price. Here’s what the email had to say…
I called up my friend NAME DELETED (the Nintendo Rep for my area) and he said that he just got off a conference call with his supervisiors and the DS lite was brought up. He told me, the release date was JUST confirmed before the call and that I was one of the first people to know outside of nintendo. He said that we are looking at a mid-May release in America at a $134.99 price point.
That puts the Australia price converterd at the current price point of the Nintendo DS which you all know is $179AUD, and the date is most likely a similiar timeframe as to when we would get it. However let’s not jump the gun, this is still very much a Rumour, however as always stay with Vooks.Net for all the latest.
