I can't believe this hasn't been done before, but I searched and didn't turn up the question here, so what color is it?
Mine is graphite with a black Pelican SP Leather Glove on it and stored very neatly in a black leather GBA SP Switch n Carry case with 6 games, the AC adapter, car adapter, a link cable, a pair of headphones and a pair of earbuds.
If I knew a good site for free photo hosting, I'd take a few pics to post, but for now just a description will have to do.
So what about yours? Any custom colors, limited editions, or skins? Or is it just a tricked out regular color like mine?

Just a cobalt SP. I've had it for a long time and there aren't any dings on it or anything, and the battery still lasts a long time. Although, one time it died and cleared all of my Warioware memory, that got me really, really pissed.

Mine's just the regular indigo. It's got a silver face plate, but I find it gets in the way if the buttons.

I would recommend Photobucket, it's free and it formats your photo links for you automatically for copy/paste goodness. (http://www.photobucket.com).

Pearl Pink? Is that an official color like the Pearl Blue one?
:shameful: Green with envy @ all you lucky NES edition owners! I wanted to get one of those so bad last year, but was way too busy buying other stuff to save up for one. Now the darned things are selling for $200 BIN on ebay!
Formerly owned:
GBP - Ice Blue
GBC - Atomic Purple
Never saw the original backlighting on the GBA screen, so don't know the difference between that and my GBA2. Just glad that my screen is brighter so I can see it more easily.
Just know the black buttons on the Graphite look cool as shit with the black SP LeatherGlove on it and all the leather accessories! I originally wanted an Onyx one, but glad my mom couldn't find one and got me a Graphite one instead. I thought the Onyx one was all black, but don't like it as much with gray buttons as I would if it was black all over.
Will post pics of all my gear as soon as I get some taken.

Yup. The Pearl Pink GBA SP came out in Japan only. But Nintendo did release a Pearl Pink DS here in North America, as part of the Nintendogs bundle.

What backlighting? The original GBA SP was lit from the side. Still way better than the original GBA which had no internal light source of any kind and worse yet had very little reflectivity so that even in 'good' light it is still VERY dark.
On topic:
My GBA is a Target LE model. It is red with grey buttons (Ohio State colors) and has the Target bullseye somewhere on the front.
In truth, I use a DS for GBA games.

Only an original, Non backlit GBA. Glacier color.
I don't use it much anymore, though. I mostly use my DS for playing GBA.
I do plan to buy an SP2 and Micro..
