I can live with just having an original GBA, for those (very few) times when I desperately need the screen lit, I've got the (inadaquate-but-functional) wormlight... it would not be worth $80 to get a backlit screen.
Oh yes, and the original GBA looks like it's a bit more comfortable to hold too...
As for the Micro... functionally? Reduced. Sensibly? Not as worth owning as an original GBA or SP. You need to buy all-new accessories. But... it looks so cool... :)
As for the price, it is high, but consider that it's surely harder to make than a SP... it's smaller, after all, and small is hard. So it makes perfect sense that it's more expensive... Nintendo doesn't want to lose lots of money on the things, and it's surely the most expensive GBA model to make, so what choice do they have...
