| PSP How many can you own? |
I own 6 of these babies. I know too many. I love the PSP it is the best portable machine out there. Come on folks, you can play games on it. You can be on/in the internet with it. You can view your home brew pictures on it including slide shows. Plus you can take it to grandmas house and display them on her TV with this fantastic 2000 model. You can even watch videos on the tv with it, albeit the graphic quality is a bit lower than with normal dvd. You can play wireless games on it. So your two kiddies will have something to do in the car besides watching videos or fighting. Common sense on this one though. The screen is a lot smaller on the psp than your TV or monitor but then so what. It is the best baby sitter for kids around. They want to watch a video in the car quietly. Plug in the ear buds or head phones and let them go at it. There is the nice option of limiting the sound volume so they don't ever have to say in a year or two. eh! mom what did you say? They will not hurt their hearing with this option turned on and I recommend it. All the other options are great in their own right and if you don't own one you should. There is software out there so you can take your home videos and play on the PSP. Hands down this is the best machine out there. I take it everywhere. If you hubby is a trucker and there are millions of them now. He should own one of these babies. Also don't forget you can listen to all the music you would ever want on this baby too. All machines wrapped into one beautiful package. Video player, MP3 player, game machine, Picture viewer.
I am 51 going half blind and deaf and love this machine. If it handed me a soda pop it would be perfect. |

| Sony Sucks but the PSP Rules |
I got the PSP about one month ago. When I received it the battery cover was broken. Sony actually wanted me to send the entire unit back to them so they could determine if the damage was caused by the system being dropped (which it has not been). They also informed me that if not it would cost $90 to "repair" (a clear assumption of my guild rather than belief that they could actually have a defective plastic case). Eventually, I just went to a local game store and purchased a double sized battery, which comes with it's own battery cover, and kit to make the original battery fit in the new cover and a add-on which makes both sides of the PSP even, despite the protrusion of the new battery cover.
Aside with how ridiculous Sony is with resolving problems for new customers, this system is the most impressive portable gaming device I have seen. Like the Nintendo DS, it aspires to be more than just a gaming system with built in 802.11b/g Wi-Fi support, MP3 support, movie support, and even a picture viewer. It incorporates the use of the Memory Stick Duo, which is used in many other Sony products. The screen size it the exact proportions of a movie theater and the brightness and color is better than any competing system. The firmware, which runs the system, can be updated via memory card, UMD (games/movies), or the internet, ensuring the system has the latest features, no matter when the system was made or purchased. The newest version of the firmware even supports Skype internet calling. The system is light-weight, but may scratch easily. I suggest buying some kind of case to keep the system in while traveling. All-in-all, I can't think of one bad thing about the PSP system itself. Though, I wish the library was a bit better, but still has more good games than the Nintendo DS. |
