I purchased a PSP from videogamesplus.ca and recieved it withing three days, they marked the box $20 CDN (childrens toy) so i didn't have to pay import tax.
Absolutely no dead pixels, and the quality of the games/movies/screen is unbelievable, and i am not that easily impressed, unless you happen to be topless with a carefree attitude towards sex ...and female...hurrah!
I ordered it with Ridge Racer and a SanDisk Memory Stick PRO Duo 512mb and a few other bits and bobs, currently waiting for Fifa 2005 and Hotshots golf to arrive..
I am a battle hardened gamer and have owned most home systems, so trust me when i say that when you see one of these, touch one of these, you will want one. Now, if they hurry up with that browser firmware update, i can stick my laptop up the loft (yes i know about the wipeout hack...*shudders*)

If it was a toss up between being given one of these systems, or a chinese lady giving me money for sexual favours... you know what.........SHOW ME THE MONEY!

Jaz, you honestly wont regret it, and the fact they don't region lock the games is a huge bonus. How they packed that kind of technology into that small unit i will never know.Jaz said:Well I ordered one. Managed to get a pretty good deal in the end. Should be here in 2-3 days.
Did you order any games with it?

Ack, you big spenders. The psp is a little tad too expensive still.
The funny thing though, is that if you get the right accessories, the psp and the ds are pretty much equal in functionality, yet the ds costs less. But then, the accessories... -_-
Take care of those psps now, you hear? They're fragile

Well my PSP arrived yesterday (see attached!), and I must say that I am very impressed with it.
The video quality on it when watching films is incredible. It's so much better than I had expected. I figured I wouldn't use it to watch movies too much, but my opinions changed drastically after watching movies on it for about 2 minutes! It really blew me away.
As for the games, I've only played Gretzky's Hockey for a small while, but it is pretty damn good. I'm expecting Wipeout and Twisted Metal in the next few days, so I shall save comment until they arrive.
Overall though, I am thouroughly chuffed with my PSP - well worth the money, and I can certainly see it getting used with the summer coming up!
Jaz is officially a PSP convert. :happy:

I cannot reccomend ImportMadness.com enough. They only charge £6.99 for 3 day shipping (ordered on Thursday, got it on Monday), and they marked it as a $30 toy so I didn't even have to pay any import tax.
For the record, I've heard stories that people have paid in excess of £50 import tax from other companies.
Again, highly recommended. Plus they were one of the cheapest options anyway!

ImportMaddness is expensive, this I know. But... I suppose that if you wish to pay extra for something, go ahead.

Based on what I bought...
Lik-Sang
PSP Value Pack - £149.
Gretzy Hockey - £26.51.
UK Adaptor - £9.99.
Spiderman 2 UMD - £21.20.
Postage to UK - £17.99.
Total: £224.79.
ImportMadness
PSP Value Pack - £149.
Gretzky Hocky - £20.
Spiderman 2 UMD - Free.
UK Adaptor - Free.
Postage to UK - £6.99.
Total: £176.98.
PlayAsia
PSP Value Pack - £150.12.
Gretzky Hockey - £26.76.
UK Adaptor - Free.
Spiderman 2 UMD - £20.23.
Postage to the UK - £16.96.
Total: £217.07.
Furthermore, it has been announced in the UK that the PSP will be released over here in September with the price of the basic pack at £180. So if you think of it logically, I managed to get it 5 months before it comes out over here, with a free game, movie and accessories, and for £4 cheaper.
Personally I didn't think it was a bad deal. :huh:

Hmm, yes you're right. Quite a bargain. There doesn't seem to be a popular site that has any cheaper price (dvdboxoffice ~145£). But I have previously seen (at least concerning games) that they're much more expensive at importmadness (plus shipping! O_O) than at dvdboxoffice, at the very least...
*Shrugs* Good deal, I guess.
