Hi all

Cn anyone give me any links on the net as to where I can buy a US PSP, If possible I wanted to be able to purchase the thing in USD as the conversion rate to GBP would make it alot cheaper.

Thanks

p.s Someone at work just bought in there Jap PSP today. Oh my god, was playing Need for Speed on it. You really can't believe it when you are actually playing it. It's amazing.

I need one now

why do you want a US one? You do realise that US is region 1 and we (UK) are region 2. I got a Japanese one as they are region 2 like us...Reemember that region encoding is only for UMD movies, not games..

if he did buy a US PSP then he would be able to play US UMD movies, an advantage of that is that most films will come out first in USA (nothing new there then) but saying that i can imagine the region coding being hacked in some way.
