Sounds like the PSP trying to be EVERYTHING but coming up short. I heard that it was gonna be able to be turned into a phone of some sort.

Oh dear, that would be a bad move.
Look at the N-Gage. That was a mega flop.

so is this what big games companies are producing in reply to all the phone companies trying to turn their phones into games units? It seems like it is a new market, and a big one at that! What with nintendo making this and sony their Playstation ps is it? I guess the big phone companies want a slice of the gaming pie, hence the likes of nokia producing the qd and such?
wonder who will do the best?

When u pay for it on the fone, it takes 4-6 days to ship. I had to send a cheque today so I might get it middle of next week to Friday of next week.

Thats cool yours will be arriving quite soon.
There is too much to buy at the moment.
There is like a whole 2 months where I have nothing to buy and then everything gets released at the same time.
Next on the list is Resident Evil 4 hopefully. I need like a million more Cube games at the moment.

Make Resident Evil 4 the priority... shame most dunderheads won't buy a Gamecube just solely for this game though. It's the game of the generation.

I might need to get Res 4 as soon as I can afford to, may even buy it when am over in florida to save a bit of cash. however I honestly have not played my cube in over a year. it is in a case in my wardrobe.
