1) Sony will soon drop the price on the PSP to $200 from $250. The first MILLION units were all Sony value packs priced @ $250 with a 32MB card, headset, headset control, soft case, arm strap and the Spider-Man 2 UMD. The $200 ones will only include the PSP, battery pack, (less than) 32mb card and the charger. This will make the unit more affordable and more popular.
