I was thinking it might use the touchscreen at first, seeing that it is a interesting and sometimes efficient form of input. The only thing I'm skeptical of is how they would work chords using the touchscreen. I thought that it could only take one input/stylus, and even then you don't use more than one stylus (hopefully). My guess is that they use the touchscreen to strum, and having 2 options for input. They would use the default buttons on the DS, with the A/B/X/Y buttons being "frets" and any directional button or different spot on screen being starpower. Or, they could use an add-on as pictured above.
I'm sure it'll have some kind of coloured buttons and a strum bar addon for the fret buttons and the game will be extended over 2 screens. I'm thinking the DS will clip into the addon and the buttons will be on the left and the strum bar on the right.
