We suppose this is close enough to an official announcement, but there will probably be an even more official announcement from Nintendo soon. The specs:
For Nintendo DS (to be inserted into slot 2) and Game Boy Advance hardware
To store music you need SD cards. Up to 2 GB cards are supported, this equals to 500 songs (best sound quality)
Choose between different skins (including one with Mario)
The interface shows all important information
The unit itself features another headphone port
The tentative price and release date are 29.99 Euros ($38) and October 8, respectively.
