    Hey Guys,

    I am real close to ordering the wind, but have a quick question. Is the wind outside covering made of a shiny plastic? In some pics, it looks shiny and in others it is dull. I am kind of turned off my the shiney mineral as I think it is a magnet for fingerprints.

    The top portion of the screen housing is the only part with the glossy finish, everything else is regular flat finish.

    Yeah, only the side opposite the screen is glossy... for some nice real world pics look at my review here(pics are half way down page):

    IMO the glossy section looks very similar to the glossy parts of the black Nintendo DS Lite... :)
