The PSPGo doesn't intrest me much at this time.  It has few advantages over the older PSP models.

I pre-ordered mines from Dell.

After discounts, bing cashback and "cancellation refunds", it came out to $178.

Honestly, I dont see myself buying any PSP games from the PSN store. I'm probably going to be transferring all of my PSone games from my PS3 to it.

Indeed. Feature-to-feature, I still prefer the older models.

I couldn't get a review unit so I had to buy my own ... it arrives tomorrow morning.

It is perhaps the WORST $249 value for a game system I could imagine.

I will pay you $50 to not buy this system.

It will be well worth the $50 to know that Sony didn't sell a single unit.

If it does tank, I hope console manufacturers consider it a lesson learned and refrain from releasing digital-media-only consoles.

Something tells me they'll take it for what it is though (the dumbest idea for a "test case" in recent memory).

If or when?

If every downloadable game on the PSN on my PS3 was transferable I'd be all for it.

Id rather sony learn a lesson on merely rehashing an old product and making its selling point "smaller". Come out with a real psp2 with dual analog sticks

There I disagree - I think that digital only is a welcome future ... but there are MANY lessons to be learned first. 

Sony really needed to address the fact that they already have the weakest game library since ... well, I dunno ... and that forcing users to have two gaming systems to access everything is just insane.

There is also the issue of game ownership: I did a 'discussion review' here of Gran Turismo.  I had teh PSN download and Matt had the UMD.  Sadly he loves the game and I think it is just OK, yet I am stuck with my copy while he could trade his away ... but can't play it on the PSP Go!
