go for a 3000, the screen brightness makes a difference when you're in well lit areas, and it has an anti-glare finish which also helps. nothing more frustrating than trying to look at the screen in the sunlight.
sound is pretty good with a good set of earphones.
I have an 8gb magic gate memory card which holds a crazy amount of albums. load them on with a mp3 rather than a Sony Atrac3 format, makes sorting them easier. download the PSP manager, you can get it for free to put on movies and music.
as for dead pixels, my release date PSP has one dead pixel, pretty good going considering how old it is.
