Flash Cart advice

[Tsukigato]

A couple of months ago I gave my old original DS and R4 to a friend for his birthday for use as he just moved out on his own and could use something cheap to spend his time on, along with games.

Now that I've bought a new DS Lite for myself, and the fact that the R4 is no longer being made (or rather, the company in Asia was shut down, if I recally correctly?) I'm not sure what to get.

Another friend has an AceKard 2i for his DSi and says he's had no problem. When I had my R4 I used to hear that CycloDS was one of the best maintained and updated ones around, so I'm not really sure what I should go for.

Any suggestions? While price is always a factor, I don't mind shelling out for a CycloDS (and probably the EZ 3-in-1) if it is the best functioning one (the RTS is nice) but I don't know enough about other carts.

Thanks in advance for the help.

Bump. I was about to make a thread similar to this myself, but I'd rather not double thread :)

I bought myself a DS-Xtreme-- that was a flop. Then I bought myself a CycloDS, which while was a great card, was shipped to me lacking all packaging and already damaged and only partially functional.
Now, I would like to know-- what is the best flash cart on the market, for a DS lite, and where would be a reliable place to purchase it?
Thanks!

DSTTi is enough and works perfect I think..

I had an EZ Flash Vi which didnt work right out of the box. What a piece! I then bought a M3 zero and had it up and running in 15 mins on a DSi. Awsome card, had to get another.
