If you connect a PSP to your TV, the quality of the graphics will drop, because its due to the small screen that the graphics look so good, if you transmit that image to a bigger screen like a TV, the graphics won't look that good anymore.
 
no

no you can't hook a psp up to a TV because TVs run at almost twice the resolution, and PSP's are in 16:9 ratio, whereas most tVs are 4:3. The psps screen is 4.3 inches big, so you should have no trouble seeing it if that is your worry
 
but there would be no point because it would look 10x worse on any given TV
At least try to back up your statements. The PSP has a resolution of 480 by 272. I'll let you go from there.
 
yes

and a TV has a resolution of like 640*480 or something like that, which would make it about 3/8 higher resolution than the PSP. And up converting games on most systems to a higher resoultion just looks bad and wrong(if its even possible). Also I'm not even sure its possible to connect it. (Sry for the bland post I was in a hurry)

Okay, you've stated what a TV can do, but what are most TV broadcasts' resolution? VHS? BTW, from what I've seen there is not any device yet that will go from a PSP to TV, though there has been talk of an aftermarket product.
 
STOP TRYING TO PROVE ME WRONG ALL THE TIME!!!!!
LOL. Just trying to make you think about what you're saying. I think VHS and TV broadcasts have something like 240 and 330 for horizontal resolutions by the way.

A PSP delivers a resolution about the same as a oridnary PS2 (some cases may very depending on the game [GT4 is 1080i HDTV compatible for exmaple] but the average game [98% of ps2 titles] are only 320X240).
Excluding that fact, the PSP has no way of transmiting a video signal to any device.

A ordinary TV (edtv with video or S-video) use interlacing (cutting resolution in half) so around 320X240 for non flat EDTVs, and about 640X480 for the Expensive Flat screen CTR's.
 
okay, so you can't hook the psp to the tv. but can you should be able to hook the tv to the psp. if you had a large enough memory stick it would be cool if you could record a tv show onto the psp memory stick and watch it on the psp.
