Like seriously whats the point of these posts/articles?

Its not like we couldn't go to 360fanboy or any of the other "fanboy" sites to get this news.

Just a waste of space.

Maybe they didn't enter because you only allow entrants from the US?

I got my new PSP lite and is a pain in the **** to configure.First you have to upgrade your PSP before playing a game(I would downgrade it to play homebrew apps but the process is even more tedious),activate the WMA via wi-fi because it seems it doesn't comes activated and after all that convert all your videos and songs into a compatible format.

Then you can play,seriously is not that this is rocket science but I would like to play a game,videos or a damn song in this thing.

Sony should consider those who doesn't have Wi-fi.

b-b-b-but that gets in the way of locking down the system.

If the choice was between homebrew or commercial games. I'm sorry. Cave Story.

How is it a pain in the ass?

Doing a firmware upgrade takes five minutes, tops. And it's not even configurable. It says "Press X to Continue" and the system upgrades itself without any input from you.

Activating WMA via Wifi takes all of two seconds. Connecting to your wireless router is the only configuration issue that I'll bite onto, but configuring the unit to work with your wireless router is something that you do that with every wireless product you own. As for file conversion... what major portable media device DOESN'T require some sort of conversion process to put stuff on it? I know the iPod, Zune, and cell phones are all anal about what files they play back. I'm not saying it's acceptable that they do this, but it's not like the PSP only plays obscure formats. The thing does MP3, MP4, WAV, WMA (with the 2 second update), and MP4 AAC video. That seems relatively on par with the formats that other portable products support.

If wireless configuration seems like rocket science, perhaps you shouldn't have configured your router to use a dynamic WPA key with specific MAC address access lists over a DMZ with an unbroadcasted SSID. You can jump on unprotected wireless spots in less than 30 seconds with the PSP, I know, I've done it before.

How should Sony consider those who don't have Wifi? By putting an Ethernet port on the PSP? Or by including firmware updates on games which they already do?

I for one picked up a PSP lite and have had nothing but good times on the system with Final Fantasy Tactics, Daxter, and Lego Star Wars 2. Or is all this because Sony bashing is what's "in" right now?

People bash Sony just like they don't buy Sony; they're not doing a good job right now.
