What comes in the box?

• Obviously the PSP unit J
• A pair of white ear bud headphones.
• A soft case.
• An AC adapter.
• A 32-MB Memory Stick Duo card
• A rechargeable lithium battery
• A grey cloth to wipe the screen.
• A remote control for controlling music and video.
• A thin leather white strap for carrying your PSP around.
• Spider-Man 2 (the movie) on UMD (first one million units only).
• A sampler disc containing music videos, movie clips and game previews
• I LOVE getting sampler discs! … NOT!

What should have come in the box?

• A  mini-B type cable.
• A mini-B type cable is required if you want to move digital photos, music and short movies to the memory card of the PSP.
• Of course if already have a camera that uses a USB min-B type cable or some other drive in your pc that supports the memory stick duo then you might not need one.
• A game. A new system should always include a free game. At $249 you can’t really do much with the PSP. (Except load music and video clips).
• So the system really costs around $300 after buying a game to go with the system.

PSP Pros

• The unit looks incredibly cool.
• Even the analog control stick feels better than I thought it would.
• The 16X9 screen is awesome.
• The picture quality is better than most TV’s.
• The game graphics are smooth, beautiful and are just a tad below PS2 quality.
• The sound has five different settings when used with headphones
• Heavy – Strengthens bass and treble for an intense sound.
• Pops – Strengthens mid-range.
• Jazz – Strengthens bass and treble for a balanced sound.
• Unique – Strengthens bass, mid-range and treble.
• None – The default sound with no headphones plugged in.
• Wireless connections very easy to set up.
• Uses Adhoc mode to connect to other nearby PSP’s
• Uses Infrastructure mode to connect to a wireless network.
• The screen is awesome!
• Four levels of brightness display.
• 1-3 can be used without the AC adapter.
• The brightest level 4, can only be used when hooked up with the AC adapter.
• I found level 1 to be a little to dark, but 2 was sufficient.
• I like the UMD.
• It’s basically a small DVD inside of a plastic case.
• It feels more durable than regular CD/DVD’s and therefore, I expect the discs to suffer fewer scratches from abuse.
• This doesn’t make it impossible to scratch, but does give the disc a little more protection.
• Being able to play Mpeg-4 videos, MP3’s, and show jpeg slideshows off a Memory Stick Duo.
• 15 titles on the day of launch, and another 10 to be released in the next couple weeks.
• Did I mention that the 16X9 screen is freaking awesome?!
