"This just in, Gran Turismo EX to be released on the PSP. Will feature downloadable tracks and vehicles, including the oft-overlooked Subaru Alcyone SVX..."

*PSP sells 3,392 more units*

there is a hard plastic lid (that i bought) that fastens with a hinge and protects the entire top of the PSP. i also bought a clear plastic screen protector. there are tons of aftermarket hard cases, rubber jackets, lids, screen protectors, etc. for this thing.

if anyone has one, here is an easy to use program (freeware) that will convert video to the form of MPEG-4 that the PSP uses, and download it to the PSP:

http://www.pspvideo9.com/

the PSP can also hook up to the PS2 with a USB cable to capture your GT4 photos.

the built-in WiFi is supposedly good to 50 feet for wireless head-to-head gaming with your homies.

Sony is supposedly has e-mail and internet browsing capabilities in the works for the PSP to download in the near future, as well as some sort of office (Microsoft?) software. there will be fold-away keyboards, and i've already seen stands with built-in battery packs and speakers for movie viewing. the accessory and application list will be huge!

this is a cool-ass gadget.

I hope that's a conservative estimate. People at work play wireless DS games across the office.

Still, I don't care for the DS. I'll get a PSP someday...
