the psp isnt a console? what is it then... a sandwich?

A handheld.

A handheld..... sandwich?  or console?

Its a handheld video game system, not home console video game system.

But i am looking at the PSP now... it looks little bit like a sandwich

According to google web definitions:

Console = A computer designed with the sole purpose of playing games. Often sold without keyboard.

PSP has a CPU, RAM, some memory storage, inputs, outputs, games... sounds like a computer designed with the purpose of playing games. I don't think it matters if its portable or not.

Arguing semantics, god I'm bored.

You can play handheld systems in your hand that's why they're called HANDheld, while you can only play consoles at home that's why they're called home consoles.

Also handhelds always  have weaker graphics and they always have a battery

Handheld console my friend. I admit theres a difference, one being a home console in housed in your home and one being a handheld console that you can travel around with. The definition above states computer designed to play games, so I'm not sure what having a battery has to do with it NOT being a console as a laptop is still considered a computer right? That has a battery, right?

As for the graphics comment I can play a SNES and it has crap graphics, it's still a console right? Hell, I can play a Wii and the graphics are weak. What's weaker graphics got to do with the price of fish?
