Did the original DS stand the test of time?

[/nDS]

I'd like to get my hands on an original DS for GBA games because I prefer that flush look over the stick out bit on the DS Lite. I used to have a DS Lite but lost it to some design fault that was later fixed. Over time pressure from hitting the ABXY buttons would break the board underneath and cause those buttons to trigger the power button. So with that in mind I'm a little hesitant about buying one of the originals. They definitely feel sturdier than the Lite models, but did they have any similar issues of fragility?
