I just bought a good condition PSP on eBay and I can't wait to get it! I just don't know everything about it. I know it playes the original games, music, movies and has the Internet on it. What else is to it? ( How much does the internet use cost? Is it werth watching movies on it? Etc. )

Getting an internet connection SET UP doesn't cost anything. All you need is a wireless internet hotspot around. I'd rather not get technical about that, because I never really used the feature much.

Music and video quality is awesome. But I still hated the size of the PSP. It's not conveniently easy to pull it out, change the song, then put it back. At least in my opinion. But that's alright if you're going on long car rides and such. Music is alright, but movies I have a grudge against. I like to rip full-length movies and put them on there, but each movie takes about 1 GB. The biggest memory card for the PSP so far is only 4 GB. The PSP is good if you want to watch short clips or TV episodes, but NOT 2-hour long videos.

Battery life is good. Unlike most consoles, the system automatically goes to sleep mode if your battery runs out while your playing. So all you have to do is charge it back up, then continue playing.

Now, the games are the main reason why I don't have my PSP anymore. There were only about 5 that appealed to me, and that's not a very good number. But then again, this is something that you can decide for yourself.

By the way, how much did you pay for yours? Because the old $250 price was TOTALLY not worth it. I'm still a little iffy on the $200 pack as well.

I've bought it and the truth is, I'm not satisfied. Well, PSP enables you to watch clips, listen to music, access the web, play games and all but I'd rather use my Ipod for music and PS2 to play games, the PSP is expensive, like 5 month of saving money and now it's collecting dust already

I have one as well. It doesn't get played that often. I go through spells when I will play it constantly, and then I won't touch it for a few weeks. For the most part, I think for me at least, is the lack of decent games for it.

The PSP doesn't appeal to me because the games library is terrible compared to any other portable (DS, GBA).

I bought one. I throughly enjoy it. I've got 2 games for it and, because they were at a such a good price, i baught the Spiderman 2 and Hitch movies.

Mortal Kombat: Unchained (basically Deception)
Harry Potter and the Order of the Pheonix

The internet. . . eh, don't really care for it. I've got a computer for that. As for music, you need a USBC cord for that and a memory card. (got one of those when i bought the PSP) I havn't got one that fits the port on the PSP so, the music feature is of no use to me.

I have a few games and a movie, Black Hawk Down to be specific. It really comes in handy on long car rides. I use mine quit a bit. Im overal satisfied with it.

the only reason psp is worth it is for homebrew. so downgrade when you have the chance

I've been wanting to try something out with my PSP but i don't have the required USB cord and i can't find one in the store. Anyone know where i could get one?

You should try ebay, or Walmart, they have everything.
