OK guys what do you think is the best way to go about this, pre order a PSP and get it on the launch day hopefully with Pure or wait to see if there are any problems with them and buy one from another batch at a later date? one more thing, can a pixel that is alive say, become dead over time?

Considering Sony's history since the late 80's / early 90's of absolute crap quality control on consumer-grade devices, I'd definitely give them some time to work out the kinks.

wurgh! That review was longer than I thought it would be when I started reading 8O

Good to hear that the audio and video bits are good for it too, that'll add to the value of having one around no doubt.

I see they didn't make any note of the square button problem, must just be a few defective models that suffer from that :?

I think it's still looking cool, keeping my fingers crossed for region free gaming though, could get hold of games from the states sooo much earlier! :D

IGN posted (http://psp.ign.com/articles/574/574557p1.html) battery life tests. Turned out decent.

yeah, shame about the mega drain of the Wi-FI but I can't imagine myself playing head to head for nearly three hours anyway, it's normally closer to half an hour :| The sleep mode looks as if it does what it's supposed to amd 10 hours of music playback, well decent! :D

10 hours of music playback, well decent! :D

That's how long you can use it as just an mp3 player? Not bad.
