A complete solution for the digital mobile lifestyle, the PlayStation Portable Slim combines high-powered gaming action with full featured multimedia entertainment within a 7"x3", half-pound package. This latest version of the popular handheld gaming console is 19% thinner and 33% lighter than the previous model with twice the onboard memory – 64MB – for faster loading times.
Experience video gaming previously reserved for at-home consoles on the 16:9 aspect ratio 4.3" LCD screen. Play your favorite games at home and on the road. Connect with a PlayStation 3 console for expanded game play and the ability to load new games. Take advantage of the built-in wireless networking to connect with up to 16 other PSPs to create an ad hoc network for multi-player gameplay even if only one player owns the game. Access the Internet by connecting to a nearby Wi-Fi router. Load your favorite movies and videos onto a Memory Stick or Universal Media Disc and watch them on the road. The TFT LCD screen is formatted for cinematic widescreen viewing and the adjustable stereo output delivers breathtaking audio. This bundle includes a 2GB Memory Stick Duo Pro which can hold more than 8 hours of video.
Also included is Star Wars Battlefront: Renegade Squadron. Lead your Rebel team fro the evacuation of Yavin 4 just after Episode IV: A New Hope and fight your way across the galaxy to the Battle of Endor from Episode VI: Return of the Jedi. Your team members, personally selected by Han Solo, can be customized to directly affect gameplay. Adjust weapons and equipment as well as attributes such as health and agility. Determine their species and customize uniforms and insignia and take them into battle at Kessel, Sullust, Korriban and other worlds.

PSP 'Slim' Version 2000 (New version)
- Pros: This unit has a brighter screen, with 3 brightness levels, all very visible except in direct sunlight. Very watchable with videos and games, AND you can hook it up to watch movies with a composite cable on a TV, or games on a HDTV with a component video (Not included, all custom cables by sony.). The battery life is actually worse than the original, but it's a lower power battery. IF you buy the higher-end battery, or use the larger original battery, the PSP will last much longer. (The original PSP battery makes it need a different batt door.). The system boots UMD's much faster (On certain games). The newest firmware release offers internet radio, skype phone calls (with PSP headset AND stereo radio remote for PSP 2000). Only the newer Slims can use Skype. There's internet available, but it's slow, difficult to use, and is more of a cutesy feature. Don't expect to use it for regular use. It's rather limited.
- Cons: A Lack of quality games. There are great games for the system, Daxter, final fantasies, Jeanne D'Arc, Socom, etc. However, if you aren't familiar with a game go to www.gamespot.com to look up some reviews. The early games were rather bad, but load times with the new UMD catching feature really helps to speed up load times. The games that the PSP does well, it tends to do EXTREMELY well.
- Other Thoughts: A nice little multimedia device, and game system. Movies on the go, great memstick support, this is a very nice system. Feels a little more breakable than the original, and it is, being made completely of plastic now, but it's more efficent as well. I'd recommend this to any older teen to adult, but not for small children.
Cool
- Pros: Easy to use-nice screen - able to modify Custom firmware using pandoras battery tutorial. game selection is okay and improving.
Changeable themes and able to connect to TV with AV cord
- Cons: Poor battery life, and unable to use older phat battery for additional power. however after the Pandora Battery mod can use power cord without battery plugged in.
- Other Thoughts: Homebrew applications are where its at if this wasnt so easy to modify I would not have purchased it. Just love homebrew applications and emulator software as well great device for this sort of stuff!

No dead pixels...
- Pros: PSP Slim with video out support, beautiful screen and significantly thinner than the original.
- Cons: Didn't come with a wriststrap...
- Other Thoughts: I had the original with 7 dead pixels. I traded that model in when Sony confirmed the PSP-2000 and would come with an LCD screen manufactured by a different company. I held off even longer when they were coming out with a Star Wars Special Edition with my boy Darth Vader. Totally happy with my purchase.
