Imagine the awkwardness of someone playing Dead or Alive Paradise right next to you on the plane.

I'd be giving her tips and tricks. Then I'd join the high mile club and it'd be awesome!

Yes, if using the no-nipple nudity code.

I don't think it works when you ask people to "please contine [sic]"

I was on a UK flight the other week offering this services. Looks like they are offering PSPs, but surely a PSPgo would make better sense?

I think the psp would be more straight forward for new users old and young

"In addition to being "fully certified for use in-flight,""

So they basically have the WiFi switch glued in the off position.

"an extended life battery..."

does it really increase the playing time enough to warrant a purchase?

Way to go SONY....don't offer your customers an 11 Hour battery but give it to airlines and customers who have no use or desire for it.

Yes I have....

My point is....Sony should offer that battery on the market to its actual customers rather than for something that most airlines & passengers will not even care about.

Seeing as how you probably won't be playing your psp for the whole length of the flight... this is really shafting non-airborne psp users

Isn't the 11-hour battery they're talking about just the 2200 mAh extended life battery that's been available to consumers ever since the PSP-2000 came out? Sure, it's pricey and hard to find in a brick-and-mortar store, but it's available.

I flew from LA to sydney. a 15 hour flight. I would have gladly taken a PSP. but I don't fly or travel enough to warrant owning one.

and when do even play for 11 hours with out having a chance to charge it?!! the only time I could think of needing battery power like that is when flying over the pacific

I remember the one time I flew from LA to Sydney. Something I ate must not have agreed with me, because I almost threw up on my DS. Not fun, but it was towards the end of the flight.

I was playing Eragon, and even now, the thought of that game makes me a bit queasy.

As long as the airlines don't get all high and mighty and stop me playing DS then I don't really care. I'm not going to play a game console with no game progress and games I haven't specifically chose when I could just play what I know (this is not a rant against PSP but I'd rather play what I bring on a plane).

Seems like a pretty good idea on all sides. It is probably cheaper to set up some PSPs with a large memory card full of a variety of movies and TV shows instead of installing seats with LCD screens (though less comfy since you have to hold the device and all). Throw in a bunch of minis and casual-friendly games and you've got more variety in one little machine than any airline could ever hope to offer without spending a ton of cash.

How about offering, oh I don't know, FOOD on a plane instead?

Also, a lot of flights have Wi-Fi now and I must admit, it's pretty cool. You can actually order Skymall crap from the actual sky itself!

If I were offered a psp with an extended battery life, I'd take the battery out and put it in my PSP.
