    I like 5.

    You shouldn't as it doesn't actually make any sense as a definition. Look up the word handheld and you get a link to:

    Alternative forms
    hand held, handheld
    [edit]
    Etymology

    (see hand) held
    [edit]
    Adjective

    hand-held
    small and light enough to be operated while you hold it in your hands.
    [edit]
    Noun

    hand-held
    (computing) a personal digital assistant

    So the PSP and DS are now just PDAs? Man that strange since they both suck at that function. 5 wasn't a valid definition in any way shape or form, and thus kind of useless in this discussion.
