Good point. To be … Good point. To be honest the only reason I haven’t bought a PSP yet is because the lack of a 2nd analog stick. Call me nuts but I hate the controller the way it is.
As for a portable media center it’s just too bulky. I have an iPhone. I use it basically for everything. “Gaming”, music, organizer, email, web, calls etc. and the best is it fits in my pocket and I can carry it everywhere.
I thought the exact … I thought the exact same thing as you did…why iPod when i have a PSP with a 4GB memorystick?
With PSP, it’s more bulkier and if you have a hacked PSP….trust me, you wont care much about having songs/videos on it, as you’ll be downloading homebrew games, PSP/PS1 retail games.
It has online, but not as fast as iPod touch/iPhone.
However, apparantly Sony/Sandisk are making a 2TB memorystick….Thats a 2000GB space…
Well that’s true … Well that’s true the PSP can store pictures, play games, AND store songs. I have both but i don’t like lugging around my big ol PSP around when i want to listen to music lol. Rather I’m at work, mowing the lawn, or just walking around the block. I want to listen to music! you know, so it’s nice to have an extremely light weight compact device that will store all my favorite songs that i can listen to on the go =]

1. new ipod … IPOD
1. new ipod touch can buy songs from itunes
2. zune can’t
3. the reliability of the ipods are much higher
4. zune is not
5. ipod touch can surf the web better and faster than psp
6. zune does nether
to be honest all i … to be honest all i can think of is the obvious such as with the ipod touch you get a touch screen, with the zune you get radio small things like that. but if you like your psp i don’t think there’s anything major enough for you to switch to one of those.
yea psp was made … yea psp was made for video games so its a big device to put on your pocket
and de zune its a lot more smaller .. and the only thing that can`t do its play games ….
actually i always have my zune on the pocket wile am playing on my psp
well… the … well… the software for psp is free to get online,
album art? yeah theres that, ID3 tags im not sure, and whats EQ?
Anyway, the PSP can do more things than both zune and ipod, it can surf the net, check email, listen to hundreds of channels of internet radio, can be modified to watch youtube.
Theres 3 downsides of PSP though,
1. Size, it can barely fit in 1s pocket
2. Battery of 4-8 hours
3. Limited Storage space of 2-8GB maybe 16, depending on the size of memory stick duo.
you’d be getting a … you’d be getting a lot more storage space. the highest capacity memory card i’ve ever seen was a 8GB card. with a iPod or a Zune… you can go up to 160GB (like my iPod)
you would have the … you would have the ability to buy music at your fingertips, plus if you have either, you’d have more pocket space and easier to sync videos and music
Um…well sir, … Um…well sir, there are alot of things that iPod/Zune can do that the PSP can’t. Think of it as an Ipod Shuffle with a screen. Let’s take a look
No included software
No Album Art
No ID3 Tags
No EQ (as far as I know of)
You need to buy a memory stick
Battery life sucks compared to the Zune or iPod
But, apparently you are quite satisfied with it, so may advice: stick with PSP.
the psp does not … the psp does not have a built in memory you have to buy a external memory and the problem with that is you can’t really find a 30 or 60 gb memory stick so it depends a lot on how much memory your going to need to be using but i know that i do have a ipod and i did have a psp for a while and i didn’t like using the psp for media files because i could fit even a fraction of the songs that are on my computer much less the movies and photos……….
the ipod and zune … the ipod and zune have a longer battery life for audio and are much smaller. you can also make playlists, listen to podcasts, or radio (zune). but overall i would chose the ipod because if you transfer o use the hard drive to transfer, like me. the psp does have nice things, big screen, internet, games, etc. but personally, i hate the zune b/c it kept freezing on me and the software is bad. so get the ipod b/c of battery life, HDD use.
