I agree. Sales on the PSP, although beginning to diminish, have held their ground more strongly than expected. Sure, opinions vary depending on personal preference...some say the battery life is worth jack s*%t, while I on the other hand find it reasonable but nothing special. Some hate the joystick figuration, but I think it's something you just have to get use to. Games, screen resolutions, size, etc. etc., the list goes on and on. However, despite all conflicting opinions, in the eyes of Sony the PSP was far from a waste. Ofcourse with emerging technology/gaming there will be flaws, but I feel the gaming systems have still continued to progress in the eyes of the consumer. Nonetheless, the PXP (latest enhanced version of Sony's PSP but resembling the PS3) has flaws still being worked out. For example, it tends to overheat and melt at times. It's obviously nothing the creators wont hopefully resolve, but I assume when it hits markets there will be some who feel that its a p.o.s. while at the same time others will love it, ultimately making a fairly large profit.
