Well Ive kinda compiled a list of great accessories for the PSP and I wanted to see what you guys came up with.

0. 1.0 or 1.5 PSP :P

1. Sony Headphones w/ Remote (I love this thing mine came with it and they really do throw some decent sound I was very impressed) Link (http://cgi.ebay.com/New-Value-Pack-Remote-Control-Headphones-for-SONY-PSP_W0QQitemZ8209440548QQcategoryZ91513QQrdZ1QQcmd ZViewItem)

2. 256MB+ Memory Stick Duo (256 IMO is enuf to get a good amount of emulators and other homebrew stuff but if you want mass amounts of video and music 1GB is probably the animal youre looking at) Link (http://cgi.ebay.com/SanDisk-256MB-256-Gaming-Memory-Stick-Pro-DUO-Sony-PSP_W0QQitemZ8209630903QQcategoryZ187QQssPageNameZ WDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem)

3. UMD 5+2 MS Airform Game Disc Holder (I think I picked mine up for 6bucks shipped and its a nice tight compact case that holds enuf to keep me busy) Link (http://cgi.ebay.com/PSP-UMD-5-2-MS-Airform-Game-Disc-Holder-Case-Black_W0QQitemZ8209274464QQcategoryZ49230QQrdZ1QQc mdZViewItem)

4. Car Smart Charger (Basicly its a USB Cable with Charger and a USB to Car Adapter so you can charge it in the car also. It basicly just puts everything in one neat package.) Link (http://cgi.ebay.com/Sony-PSP-Car-Smart-Charger-USB-Cable-Mp3-Movie-Files_W0QQitemZ8209555318QQcategoryZ62054QQrdZ1QQc mdZViewItem)

5. Power Station 3800mAh (Ideal for us Homebrew users so we dont kill thru the battery when whe're running at full clock speed. Also great for thoes long road trips or plane rides) Link (http://cgi.ebay.com/SONY-PSP-Portable-Battery-Charger-Power-Station-3800mAh_W0QQitemZ8209225675QQcategoryZ91513QQrdZ1Q QcmdZViewItem)

Theyre in no particular order but thats kinda the 5 I really think are worth getting. I was wondering if you guys had run across anything that was really functional or just cheap for thoes of us on a tight budget. And add links if thats ok with the Webmaster. You can kill my links if Ebay stuff is not allowed. The links I threw in there are just for referance Im sure that you can find cheaper prices.

well i dunno about a car charger, i mean who plays a PSP whilst driving (ok, i suppose long journeys are an exception ... )

i'd probably include a PSP bag in there too, like the spongey one that comes with the value pack is a cool one (which i dont have anymore because my dad knicked it then sold his PSP with it :@ )

as for the memory stick, i reckon a 512mb one is the best, since some emulators require big ISOs or roms (NeoCD, a future GBA emu? ) and theyre now only £40 from play.com so thats a bargain!

reading number 1 depresses me because ive lost my headphone gear (i have the remote bit, dunno where the other half is though ;s)

other than that, nice list there :D

...since some emulators require big ISOs...Come september 1st if that PSOne emu works ill be investing in a 1gig :P FF7 on the go would be to die for :P.

What do you guys think of thoes Silicone Skin things or how bout screen protector film....is it worth it? I baby my PSP but im always afraid that if i accidently throw it in the same pocket as my keys im gonna pull it out with a massive scratch and im going to cry. this happend to my GBA and it really annoyed me it was like having a hair accross the screen at all times lol just pissed me off.(Link (http://cgi.ebay.com/Silicone-Skin-Case-Cover-Jacket-for-SONY-PSP-BLACK-New_W0QQitemZ8209235410QQcategoryZ11319QQrdZ1QQcmd ZViewItem))

Well all the screen protectors I have seen make big air bubbles that wont come out. Plus a 1 gig is needed for future homebrew stuff because it is all getting bigger and bigger.

Does anyone have the TV Adapter Kit (PSPonTV)???? It appears to make your psp look like a road cone. It seems to me that if it worked it would be a good way to get umd movies on your computer.

This sounds a bit back to front... I am already going through my movie collection , re ripping them for memory stick use... I cant see any reason to actually buy a UMD movie wen you can buy the DVD and rip it down to PSP size...

I'd say a bag/protective skin, screen guard, gig or more stick(unles you have an mp3 player- sold mine to get PSP, better suited for me) extended battery for sure, and games lol.
