Figures sony wouldn't fix these... good thing I don't need a new psp to play new psp games. I guess with this edition of the psp the microphone is built in. It seems to me the next step for Sony would be to make the psp 4000 a full fledge phone or maybe add tilt n tumble to the psp. What I really want though is a psp that lasts 24 hours on a single charge in full brightness 333 game mode(this of course without making the psp any bigger or making the battery hang out).
