WiFi.com Review:
I have told many people the PSP is the best impulse buy I have ever made. I really mean it. This is not to knock other handheld units like the Nintendo DS Lite - I have never used one one so I cant give an honest opinion! I am a Generation X gamer who travels alot for work. The PSP is easy to tote through airport security, lets me access the wifi connection for Internet wherever I go, and provides me with hours of entertainment (movies, games, MP3's, and videos).
I upgraded to a 1GB memory stick duo (They come with a 256k stick) and this allows a greater cache size for those intensive webpages. I am satisfied with the 1GB stick, but will likely upgrade to the 2GB stick soon.
