description
PSP comes in a black color, with a 16:9 widescreen TFT LCD centered in a sleek ergonomic design with a high-quality finish that fits comfortably in the hands. The dimensions are 170mm x 74mm x 23mm with a weight of 260g. PSP features a high-quality TFT LCD that displays full color (16.77 million colors) on a 480 x 272 pixel high-resolution screen. It also comes complete with the basic functions of a portable player such as built-in stereo speakers, exterior headphone connector, brightness control and sound mode selection. Keys and controls inherit the same operability of PlayStation® and PlayStation 2, familiar to fans all over the world.

PSP also comes equipped with diverse input/output connectors such as USB 2.0, and 802.11b (Wi-Fi) wireless LAN, providing connectivity to various devices in the home and to the wireless network outside. The world of gaming is further enhanced by enabling users to enjoy online gaming, or by connecting multiple PSPs to each other, directly via the wireless network. In addition, software and data can be downloaded through a USB or wireless network onto Memory Stick™ PRO Duo. All of these features can be enjoyed on one single system.

PSP adopts a small but high-capacity optical medium UMD™ (Universal Media Disc), enabling game software, rich with full-motion video and other forms of digital entertainment content, to be stored. The newly developed UMD, the next-generation compact storage media, is only 60mm in diameter but can store up to 1.8GB of digital data. A broad range of digital entertainment content such as music video clips, movies and sports programs can be provided on UMD. To protect this entertainment content, a robust copyright protection system has been developed which utilizes a combination of a unique disc ID, a 128 bit AES encryption keys for the media, and individual ID for each PSP hardware unit.

    Awesome!!
    I bought a PSP about a month ago and I love the browser, the games, the ability to play music, and the ability to play my downloaded videos. It is awesome. If I get bored playing the game or watching a UMD, I just switch to my saved videos or music and enjoy. I love it. If you don't have one, you better go out and get one now.

    I love it
    The psp is awsome. I just got my psp about a week ago. Games a decent but I didn't get it for games. Games bore me. I'm using for purly a media player. Now since I got the browser downloaded and installed I've bin using it even more so. I just wish they would come out with a region free psp. I don't like american movies and the only umd I'd watch is anima and such.

    psp
    I brought one about 4 months ago and its wonderful, BUT can I give a word of warning to others, my brother brought one from the States and the joystick on his broke today, Sony UK told him that is would cost £135.00 to repair it because it was the american version. That's about how much he paid for the thing in the first place. Great game system but I don't think much of SONY themselves

    Good but wait.
    At the moment for a games machine the games are a bit...Meh. The ds has much better games at the moment. Looks like the xbox of handhelds in more ways than one. There are hardly any decent japanese games for it save Ridge Racers and Metal Gear AC!D. It is a very good machine that you will appreciate if you get one and it has a lot of potential but it's just not worth it yet. For importers the DS just has more interesting games. If it turns into a PS2 port machine it is doomed to failure. This worthy handheld doesn't deserve that though.

    Very nice
    This is one excellent hand held. Crystal clear display and the capabilities make it stronger than the DS in 3D graphics from a technical viewpoint.

    I wouldn't go saying that the DS is any worse though. Of course the dual screen and touch screen is a gimmick but it's a LOT of fun as well.

    for your attention
    PSP is and always will be the superior of the 2 machines the Nintendo DS/PSP

    if we break it down here we have PSP

    -a sleak, and comfortable design
    -a handheld that produces better graphics then that of the PS2
    -a handheld able to play music/movies
    -a handheld which you can soon upgrade its OS
    -a handheld that by all rights is WiFi

    the battery life of the PSP is 2hrs for movies(nonstop) 4hrs for games(non stop), and 11hrs for Music(non stop)

    dont ask me why, but make sure the machines fully charged before watching a movie

    i would also like to put to rest any rumours of the PSP"s square button, less then 1000units were sent back in Japan, NO MORE, the problem is fixed and your PSP should work perfectly when you recieve

    also i would like to put to rest any issues with "dead pixels" unfortunatly that was just a rumour, and a very minor problem that affected some peoples PSP"s not all

    Sony have produced a great machine here, and i hope my comments have helped you decide to buy the machine

    i fully reccommed the PSP, it will soon have a huge catologue of triple AAA titles

    but if you feel the need to buy the Nintendo DS for the 50th mario iteration be my guest, ive always felt the duel screen was just a gimmick that will wear thin pretty quickly

    have a nice day

    PSP IS AMAZING
    Buy this PSP now, mine arrived today after a four day wait and I played Ridge Racer non-stop for 3 hours.

    No matter how high your expectantions the PSP will still be great and the graphics are brilliant.

    The PSP menu is in English, the Ridge Racer game is in Japanese but is really easy to understand and all the gameplay is in Englisg and also explanation of the race and controller setup is in English.

    10/10 - you have to buy it

    ***THANK PLAY ASIA FOR THE PSP, FAST DELIVERY AND THE QUICK AND EASY SERVICE, I HAD NO PROBLEMS AT ALL***
