answer:
as media player psp is second to ipod
as console is second to DS.
in the end is a good choise for ones that cannot afford to buy an ipod and a ds.
if you say the best in each category psp is a failure...
BUT TRUTH IS :
THAT I STILL SEE PEOPLE USING PSP AS MP3 PLAYER...
THESE PEOPLE ARE CASUALS THAT BUY PSP ONLY AS A GADGET LIKE LATEST MOBILE PHONE..."MAYBE USELESS BUT MUST HAVE...IT'S COOL"
REAL GAMERS BUY FIRST A DS AND THEN IF ENOUGH MONEY A PSP...
BUT MOST AS MEDIA PLAYER...
I'm a gamer.
I want a console that works as a console.
when you deisgn hardware from the scratch todo too many things you have to make decisions.
PSP is bad designed.
look at software charts.
simply gamers don't use PSP as a console.
the reason is that psp si bad designed.
many people buyed a psp,but looking at software charts,majority of people simply use psp only as mp3 player.
I see many many people using psp as mp3 player.
ipod is the best choice for this.
so psp failed against ipod.
GBA2 is on the way.
I think sony will leave portable market soon.
maybe PSP2 will fight against microsoft project of portable pc/console/mediaplayer...
I will continue to buy console that do only the console.
if I want a mp3 player I'll buy an ipod.
attacking nintendo and apple wasn't the best choice.
