 How you can get this for a fiver November 26, 2008

Christmas is coming so save your cash! Why purchase something you can get for free or a fiver.
Go to freeiphoneforme.co.uk and sign up. Complete ONE offer- I would recommend Gala Bingo (you know, the one Sharon Osborne advertises for on tv),as this is cheap and fun (and you might win some money in the process!). If you really don't want to spend, there is a free Lovefilm trial which is really good too.
All companies are well known so there is no risk involved- give it a go! I got my Ipod, PS3, Xbox 360, Wii, HDTV and satnav this way, so don't miss out.
I was sceptic once but now I am SO glad I gave it a chance. BBC approved this system on their Newsnight programme a while back.
They send your gift Free of charge
Enjoy!

Let's get things clear here. This probably isn't worth buying if you already own a PSP slim and lite, fair enough. But if you don't yet own a PSP then you should definitely consider buying one. All the 1,2 and 3 star reviews are reflective of an unimpressive upgrade, and by no means represent the attributes of the system itself.
The PSP is a very cool little gaming device capable of PS2 quality visuals; it plays film and music media; it works as a camera (with the correct add-on), sat nav, has wireless internet access and can link to your PS3 while you are out and about via remote play. It is truly versatile.
It's not as user friendly as the DS and a second analogue stick would have been a worthwhile addition. If you are a casual gamer then perhaps Nintendo's machine is more for you as the games are more geared towards accessible input, but if you want to play Grand Theft Auto: Vice City on the train then this is the one.
 terrible screen on psp 3000 October 27, 2008

if you already have an earlier psp dont bother upgrading. the new screens they are using on this model are HORRID. i've already taken mine back because i just couldn't look at the crappy visuals anymore. go for the older model if you really want to get one now, or wait and see if they fix the problems with the 3000.

This PSP is fundamentally flawed, the screen does not interlace properly, fast moving objects break up and scanlines appear on moving characters in games and films.
This is a step BACKWARDS, not only that, my first one had 8 dead pixels, returned it, got one with 5 dead pixels, returned it now got one with only 2 dead pixels !
Google 'psp 3000 interlace' if you dont believe me and see how many unhappy people there are out there. Sony have said this is a 'feature' that cant be fixed as it is a hardware 'feature'.
No doubt they will release yet another version in the very short future to address the problem, meanwhile leaving us early adopters with a piece of tat. Many american sites are no longer offering this model for sale.
PSP 3000 - A jazzed-up future proofing October 19, 2008

I got a psp slim and light last christmas. I have found this to be an amazing handheld. I don't have the time and space to have an Xbox 360 or PS3, the PSP however can go anywhere and you can put the system onto stand by, ready to play later on. This is a great machine, it even plays movies (UMD discs and Digitally stored movie files)music and works as a photo/picture viewer. I love this machine.
When I found out that the PSP 3000 was coming out I was really excited about the brighter screen, anti-reflection and in-built microphone. Basically I spent an extra 20 getting this and yes, the screen works much better in brighter light, the colours are definitely sharper, the microphone works well (I made a skype call with it and my headphones in my ears)and the case is more resistant to finger prints.
To be honest these are features which should have originally been on the first machine. THESE ARE NOT GROUNDBRAKING! My slim and light was malfunctioning so I exchanged it for the psp 3000. If you already have a slim and light, think very carefully before buying this. You are not getting more bang for your buck! If you are deciding between this and the slim and light go for this, because you will have the machine that the first slim and light should have been.
