GBA SP — “Now with a BRIGHTER backlit screen

[wraggster]

Rumors are circulating that Nintendo has quietly launched a new version of the Game Boy Advance SP, which features a backlit screen said to rival the PSP. The old on/off side-lighting button has been replaced with a button that now toggles between two (backlit) brightness levels. The new GBA is only available in Graphite and Pearl Blue. Can anyone confirm this?
