Totally feel the same way. Some things I did not like:

-Glossy finish
-SD card placement
-Stylus location
-Analog nub(Wish this was another circle pad)

The new 3D tracking worked really well and I was impressed with it but most of the time I play with the 3D off so I couldn't justify spending $200 for something that wasn't a huge improvement over what I already had.

So are these available in the wild (the non LE ones)? I went to Target the other day and didn't see any.

I still say the relative scarcity is brilliant on Nintendo's part. The way Supermallet and Setzer feel is the way I felt and I'd think the way most non-Nintendo enthusiasts feel, that this isn't really that significant of an upgrade and there aren't that many games that take advantage of it. And still there was a stampede to get them at launch.
