As for the PSPs (and Nintendo DSes) You can make many friends on a bus/train/carpool with network gaming. Why the hell do you want to spend your commute times or lunch in your cube watching more toob when you can read, (not for you drivers) have conversations, mess with your computer or go take a walk to lunch with friends? Enough with the video, put down the cellphone and socialize. IMHO, Video-on-the-go is novel but unless you're on a long trip nothing replaces sitting down at the end of the day to a nice show or two. I went back to playing games on it or just reading and left the TV viewing for home.

I even tried the whole video snarfing thing to my PSP - even had it scripted out so that other than the time consuming part of it I had to do little more than pick a show or two to suck off the Tivo, plug in the PSP to charge and download and then just dismount it grab and go in the morning. I mean c'mon, video on the go? I commute by train and see many folks squinting at their ipods and Archoses, er Archi, et al and it seems more a pain in the ass than anything. Let the the other gadget whores support the constant onslaught for you. Chances are there will be something shiny and 10 times better to replace it when your beloved device gives up the ghost and you won't be a pennyless gadget whore after waiting it out. Find one that just does the job well and use it until it dies.
Now follows some of my experiences with and thoughts on gadgets on the go, video included - and why I won't be buying a video iPod anytime soon. But needless to say I now have a nano of my own, my son has my old mini and I pro'lly won't give up the nano until, I dunno, the fucking iPod neural implant comes about? I did have a mini for awhile and was perfectly happy with it until I bought my wife a nano and realized how crappy the sound quality was but if it wasn't for that I'd still have said mini. Hell, it still works all but for an overbaked battery. I hung onto my 1st gen old 5GB clicky wheel thing until I was little more than a 386 user in a Pentium world.
