Yes, i was one of those people who bought it for 250 and i was teribbly disappointed.

why does sony always rush things, and then later on, drop the price of their product and at the same time make it better with a cheaper price?

Because that is what all electronics/technology companies do? If this bothers you, I advise also staying away from products from Apple, Nintendo or any cell phone manufacturer.

I was glad I got mine that early. I was really happy with the PSP and I still play it when I get an itch to. So it was worth it for me.

i fell you tc. i wouldnt have cared if it was $300 but they could have at least made the screen and buttons out of something that doesnt scratch easily. and they could have dropped a little $ to secure liscenses for some good games (ms does this).

Yeah, I do. And I remember it seeming way overpriced. Didn't bother til I actually gave handheld gaming a chance since Gameboy Color, bought a DS and a year later a PSP. Totally worth it!

I do...

But honestly, i kinda feel that besides a brighter screen and a slimmer feel, the NEW PSP's USB Port is really not good. I feel like it's much cheaper, which probably is accounting on the newer one is cheaper.

Plus 1000 came with a memory stick while the 2000 doesn't.
