psp hands down. DS is inferior in every way, unless you're a big mario fan. I had a DS, used it for a few months and then sold it.

PSP and DVDFab Platinum for your movie viewing pleasure.
PSP has Wi-Fi, movies (with DVDFab you can copy DVD's to PSP format), and games. GPS and camera attachments to be released in the future.

I pick ds just for the fact that im a gamer that most times only has 5 minutes to play a game so ill play brain age for 5 minutes and in that time the psp is finally done loading what it has to load. So if you want a all in one slow machine for very long road trips psp if you want innovative technology and quick pick-me up games the id say ds

PSP doesnt have long load times. If you turn the PSP off during the game, once you turn it back on it will pick up right where you were with no loading.

Lars couldn't be any further from the truth on the load times.

PSP's are great. Very very reasonable cost and functionality, plus great versatility. A true all in one portable media center.
I had one and sold it so I could buy wheels for my car... where are my priorities at?? I have many times wished I had it back, and I would like to buy one again soon.

Hold out for the PSP2. Something like a 40 gig hard drive.

There really arent very many good games for PSP (IMO) that you cant already play for PS2. Its a great unit dont get me wrong, but I use mine more for the video aspect and even then my new MP3 player is starting to edge out the psp in that area.

I have both and I must say that the PSP is better. Both are very fun but you need to know which games to buy. For DS I have Starfox Command, MarioKart, Brain Age, and Kirby's Canvas. For PSP I have Burnout Legends and Every Extend Extra. Def get EEE. It is hard at first, but you get the hang of it after a while.
