PSP: Wow

I've been a good boy and I have managed to not buy one, but I did go and try it. I have to say, it is a very nice machine. And it's true, fingers are it's number one enemy!

When I go shopping, I love to give the salesman crap about his products, it gives me a good feeling to see him try to explain how it's not a bad. For example, I couldn't find anything really bad to say about the PSP so I went for those Memory Stick. It was funny to see the salesman trying to explain how it's because they use less memory compared to a flash card. Well, I'm sorry but compared to an SD card, I doubt there are much difference between their power consumption, plus with the SD you get twice the space for the same price. Anyways, he was trying to tell me all of this but I just tuned him out and played on the PSP.

This console is really great looking and feels good in my hands. The load time is long, but once it's running, you forget about it. The first thing you notice is the screen, wow, it's just so beautiful!

There were rumors lately on the internet about Sony not exchanging the PSP unit if there were dead pixels. So I asked the salesman at The Sony Store and he told me that it was not a problem and that they would exchange it. So it was just a rumor.

Well, it's a nice machine, let's see how long I'll hold up before breaking down and buying one. : )
