Vita. 3DS is not worth the money for its technology.

And the PS Vita is worth your money? Is the extra thumpstick, processing power/RAM, proprietary memory (Plus the outragous prices of those), and massively good looking screen worth the aditional $100~? Mobile gaming should be MOBILE! And at least have a spot that I put a bigger battery to upgrade the time per charge... 5 hours tops is not too appealing when someone like me owned both a lot of the DS models and a PSP (the DS was totally better :)).
I kinda feel bad for Sony, but I am eager to see if the sales numbers drop off like they did in Japan. I'm absolutely sure that the Winter season will be better for the PS Vita... but it will also be good for the 3DS if they get a list of big releases. ;)

.. You are right. If you have the money, it's worth it. If you don't, stick to the DS.
Oh, and Vita sold over 1.2 million units within the first week of its US release if you want to talk about numbers.

/facepalm
It didn't sell 1.2 million units ONLY in the US or EU. It sold 1.2 million units WORLDWIDE from the Japanese launch and the weeks after that included into that number of units that sold in the US and EU. So we know that the last number we have for Japan was 578,812 units in Japan. That leaves 612,000 for both the US and EU, so lets split those with 350,000 sold in the US and 262,000 in the EU (I'm excluding the fact that the PS Vita released in MORE than just the US and EU because it was released in Australia, Asia, and South America at the same time too). That means the numbers will be slightly less than those numbers, but it doesn't matter because the 3DS had MORE sales numbers but was taken as the weaker launch. In the first week, the 3DS sold 440,000 units in the US and 303,000 in the EU. By the numbers, the PS Vita is WORSE than the 3DS in terms of number of units sold in the launch week.
Then again, if they really have the total number, Sony is just hiding the fact that in the US and EU, it sold WORSE than the 3DS when it launched and is easily being outsold by the 3DS today (in Japan, Nintendo is selling 7~ 3DS's for every 1 PS Vita). Hell! None of the PS Vita games are even on the top selling charts!
