Yeah it has a browser, just like any PSP.

I think it is wireless 802.3b... but I downloaded some demos a bit ago, and it was way faster than I expected.  I guess I could have just been capped at the 11 mbps than 802.3b tops out at.  Seemed awful speedy to me, though.

I do have one issue with the device, after having it in my pocket for a while.  It slides easy, and turns on when you open it.  It has turned on by accident a couple times now (I can hear it turn on).  I think you can set it to not turn on with the slide, but I haven't rtfm yet, or looked too closely at the XMB.

A little leather pouch would be perfect for both screen protection and stopping the slide.  Got to write that on my "grocery" list.

If you like paying more for the same games, this system is for you.

Some people value the added portability and the ability to not own UMD's.  You are a negative one, aren't you?

PSP-2000 for me. I like being able to swap out memory sticks. I use micro SDs across all of my devices, including PSP. I have a different micro SD for all of my emulation needs. A couple micro SDs for fansubs on the go. One with MP3s. I can view photos from other devices (camera, cell phone, etc.).

Sorry Grimes, as I said, I've actually made money by selling off my old UMDs on eBay, and repurchasing those games from the PSN store.

As a collector, the last thing I want to own is a physical media disc which can get scratched, and which goes in a drive -- the far most likely component to break on almost any console. I can burn backups on DVD or BD, if I think the internet is gonna explode, or I don't want to buy extra mem sticks.

Mostly the games from the store are pretty cheap. You can cherry pick some (mostly still available at retail) that are spendy, or that you can find on clearance on UMD, but for the most part... cheap.

What's your beef with the Go, anyway? This is like your 10-zillionth anti-PSP Go post. Do you work at a UMD manufacturing plant or something? Do you work for MS, and are upset that people aren't flocking to the Zune HD as their digital gaming platform of choice?

Just like the people that can feverishly love the PSPGo, there will be people that feverishly hate the Go.

Bost sides have their opinions and that's all there is to it.

Agreed, also GT:PSP is on of the best games to date on the PSP, I have been playing it since last night and I can't put it down, I cant understand how that game got so many bad reviews.

Getting it in November, will give you my impressions then.

it hope it will be like the PS3. begin rubbish & too expensive and end up cheap and awesome.

To those who hate on the psp Go, remember it serves its purpose well.

1. Test the waters of digital distribution

2. Reignite interest in the psp system as a whole

3. Make Sony some Money!

That's it. Its not supposed to replace the 3000 or UMD, and it isn't supposed to dominated the handheld market. Its a test, a beta if you will, for the future of game distribution. And it does its job well.
