I have one and love it. And there is noway you can compare a laptop to a PSP....totally different!!! Laptops will far surpass PSP's anyday, thats a fact! I don't think the umd movies are worth it either, cause they are only PSP compatiable. get a 1GB card(get a bigger one if available), and you can upload songs, music videos, movies, anime's, TV series, etc.... on it and switch off with other media on your main computer hard drive when needed. you can also upload emulators to play nintendo, sega, atari, etc... games on it. not to mention, the orignal sony psp games are awesome as well. In my opinion, the best portable media hand held so far. I use mine to play games while sitting around waiting for things(like movies to start at the theater, picking up my girlfriend from college, etc...), or in the gym to watch videos while I'm doing cardio on the treadmill. I agree, things get expensive with the PSP...but depending on what you will use it for, it could be worth it, or it couldn't be worth......me myself find it worth it. I have the PSP, 1GB card, and 1 game(world championship poker)...and I love it.
