Sony of America has announced that the PSP will launch on March 24. The system will carry a price tag of $249.99 and come bundled with several accessories, including a 32MB memory stick, AC adaptor and a copy of the feature film "Spider-Man 2". The company did not announce plans to sell the PSP as a standalone device at this time. Sony plans to ship 1 million units to North America by March 31. Courtesy CNN

Their competitor, Nintendo, sold 3 million DS units in two months and raised their expectation to sell 5 to 6 million units in the next month or two.

I am interested in the PSP, but I will not be buying one. First off, I can't afford the $250 for the package, then another $40 for a game. EB has a starting point of $399 with 3 games and an accessory. I may eventually buy one when the price goes down and when they get some of the bugs worked out of it. (I recommend that you right-click and save target as on the videos and the flash)

I out.
