PSP's aren't bad, but maybe hold out for an X-Box 360 and then modulate it as a media center.

You can surf the web, read pdf's, doc's, RSS's, download music, run amiga and nitendo emulators on it, run Win95 on it (Linux in developement) etc etc. Its like an abomination. It combines PDA,PS2, PC, GameBoy.....
On the other hand a Gameboy SP is simple and do what its ancestors does... of course in a better way.
So the choice is yours.
Btw: I've couldn't help myself and join the dark side. So I'm writing this on my PSP.

Fariska, I get three hours of power . Maybe he should take his back, he may have gotten a bunk battery.
Also, Multiplayer GTA is awesome. I played 3 player GTA for 6 hours with my nephew and one of his boys.

the battery life lasts about 3-4 hours.

from what i have heard so far out of this thread, the nintendo micro i have boasts far better gameplay than the psp. seems i have more fun just playing the game.
the psp has far too many things going for it that it starts to be a distraction from the original idea, and then gets lendded to a friend, sold back to the store either because the consumer is overwelmed by what you can do.
i have yet to hear a psp consumer rave about the one single thing which is the gaming aspect of the machine.
its real amazing that it ddoes the other stuff, but my laptop and my tower or my ibook or my mini or my mac blah blah...
the real question is...are you a gamer??? do you even like games/?? also now what games do you favour?? a psp is limited to the offering of gaames so far but soon there will be a lot to chose from, but are you really going to be online with your psp at home when you have a computer? or are you really going to watch a movie on the psp when you have a plasma 50" flat screen...i think not.
and after a month or a week you may not see the psp in your hands but rather maybe a wank here or there.
thi sis why i highly reconmend the gameboy micro, its purpose is gaming only, the graphics are equal to the psp for what it is, a game hand held machine.
it passes the time when needed and is 1/3 the cost price of the psp. also the battery last a lot more than 4 hours!!! and charges in less than 2. there is over 200 games already. and its as small as a ipod nano.
an ounce of weed might get you laid a lot quicker than a sont psp or a nintendo micro.
go get high!!!
