~Well, also I've just been informed that the Gp2x does not have it's own games, but can run emulators and other supported games which really changes my opnion more toward the PSP.

The psp. It will go through a lot more ware and tear than the generic.Plus you can acsess the net,watch movies,and play better games. Get the psp
You are a retard, macman. I hate to tell you, but just because something is not released in America does not mean it is generic. Your other statements are a load of biased bullshit. And yes, it probably will last at least as long as, or most likely, longer, than the PSP.
But the rumors I have heard from the PSP make me iffy, is it true that battery life is a little low considering the large screen? And also that it sometimes overheats if played in weather of over 80 degrees? Also I have heard that the screen is a little weak and can't sustain much dropping if ever occured.
~Well, also I've just been informed that the Gp2x does not have it's own games, but can run emulators and other supported games which really changes my opnion more toward the PSP.
I get about 3-4 hours of battery life on my PSP. Yesterday and today, Illinois has had 80+ degree weather, and I have not had any overheating issues. It is true, though, that the screen is pretty weak.
The best analogy I can make is that portable video game systems are just like cars: the old ones could sustain a hell of a lot of damage and lasted a lot longer than the newer ones do. I still have my old Game Boy color: and it still works as well as it did when I got it.
They just don't make them like they used to. </old fart sayings>
In reality, though, I would get a PSP just for the fact about the games. I would rather buy real games than emulated ones, especially since you can get PSP games here, as opposed to waiting for them to arrive from Japan. Plus, game stores (Eb games, Gamestop etc.), as much as they rip you off, will actually take PSP games back for credit. I doubt they will take games for this GP2X. I do like things with easily replaceable batteries, though. (Like the old Game Boys)

I think the touch screen would be pretty stupid, because you'd be better off getting a DS, which Ophra system is coming out on June 2, which is pretty soon. What it is, is a game cartidge that takes advantage of the Wifi and runs a Internet Explorer type internet of it and I believe the internet is free or fairly cheap around like 50 bucks a year or so.Huh. Wow. That psp2 looks amazing. 8gb flash memory would be nice... Along with touch screen. I hope the ram is better on the internet. Last time they only had 6 meg's. I could rarely check my email.
