Sony PSP

[Fidgits]

i'm tempted to get a Sony PSP (imported), and was wondering if anyone had one of these yet and whether it was worthwhile...

any hints, tips, info???

I've got one. They're fantastic! Getting tricky to get hold of as Sony have banned all imports.

You can get porn on these now... but why not get a mini DVD thingy if you like ladies on the go?

They're very good - PS2 level of quality with a big & clear screen.

It does feel like bits may fall off it though

I use mine for at least an hour every day on the train, so it's a life saver as far as I am concerned. If I didn't have such a big commute though, I'm not sure it would be worth it... apart from when the misses kicks me off the TV to watch some tripe or other

i have a psp and they truly are worth getting, i use mine quite a lot and the only thing i would suggest getting is either a 512mb or 1gb memory stick for it

Well, had my 2 babies for a while now. The first one has taken an absolute battering. I always shove it in my back pocket and because the thumb joypad is clipped on instead of stuck on......well....I haven't seen it for a while, or the replacement ones I have put on since. I have got a few dead pixels and the R1 button does not respond as well as L1 - it doesn't pop up with the same enthusiasm.

However, one of them has literally been around the world and has dropped and bounced on marble floors on at least 3 continents and has survived. The UMD draw is not completely lined up but it runs just as well.

Yes, you can whack some porn on as I had Paris Hilton doing the honors when I first picked up the machine. Comes out very well and mates are always a bit suprised as they think they are about to play a game

So yeah, go for it. If you travel into work via public transport, fly all the time or generally find yourself with 30 min windows of opportunity every now and then this is something you'll want to get your hands on.
