PSP isn't 200 dollars....

true, the price i put was the rachet bundle ill fix it

I think the psp go is $249.99 not $259.99, you might want to check that.

I still don't see the big deal on the price point though, its less expensive than an Ipod touch with the same amount of storage and has better games. It also has access to content that can be trasfered between your PS3 and back again with little trouble. Maybe its just me, but people are making way too big a deal about this.

You are completely right, but everythign you said can be done with the 3000, and it really cost sony least to build a psp go than a 3000, you are getting less and paying more

Yes that is true, it can all be done with the 3000, but I maintain the stand point that the majority of people that will go with a first gen PSP GO are going to be people that are looking to trade up and go with pure digital format or a smaller device, but that will hinge ultimately on Sony putting out a good UMD trade up plan. The price will drop on it as a new model with more storage comes out. I think they plan on pricing a bit like Apple does there IPod's because the whole concept seems comaparable. Also those with a PSP 3000 might consider getting this device due to the screen issues.

If this works out the way Sony says it will I will most likely trade up and buy a GO.
