Wow. I like downloading (in fact, the few UMD games I own, I wish I'd have downloaded --for the convenience) but Sony is committing suicide if they're going that route. It's too soon. And how long does it take to download a PSP game without a PC or a PS3? I've never been brave enough to try!!

not long at all. maybe 5 minutes with decent wireless. If PSP2 uses wireless-N it would be amazingly fast.

WLAN =/= 3G

playing right now: Xenoblade Chronicles

Hype-o-meter, from least to most hyped:  the Last Story, Twisted Metal, Mass Effect 3, Final Fantasy XIII-2, Final Fantasy Versus XIII, Playstation ViTA

bet with Mordred11 that Rage will look better on Xbox 360.

I'm not talking about PSP Minis or small games like Street Fighter Alpha 3 Max, or even comic books.  You mean a full fledged PSP game that is in the range of 1GB or more can down load in 5 minutes?  Even my PC and my hard wired PS3/360 can't download data that fast!!  If this wireless-N (that I admit I've never heard of) can download data that fast then I'm gonna give Sony the benefit of the doubt.  The market is crowding fast and there are still those intimidated by digital media, but I'll be onboard.  Is the mass market ready, though?

Well, who knows... it could work with those cards (above)...
the main problem about this in the moment is the lack of backward compability... which is a major feature to new systems.

Say good-bye to, any chance I had of purchasing the thing. It was pretty low to begin with anyway. I don't want another $200 paperweight.

considering on my Droid the fastest speed I've seen the connection at is around 1.7mbps and my wireless G from my router rates at around 7mbps, im going to say WLAN > 3G.

 

And lets not go into that horrid service Sprint called 4G. Its just WiMax, which Verizon, T-Mobile, and AT&T will not standardize for their 4G services.
