I have a psp-2000, darth vader edition. It works very well. I've owned a psp 1000, but I traded it in for a psp 2000. Yes it is very light, but if you're careful you won't drop it. The PSP is pretty big. Knowing me, I'd drop the PSPgo before I drop the previous models.
The PSPgo really isn't a replacement model. Its another way to suck money out of casual gamers who know nothing about games. While they're caught up in the hardware, they're getting beat off the software. The library of games for the PSP is constantly growing, and the PlayStation store is not doing a good job of keeping up. There are hundreds of titles not yet out on the Playstation store. Furthermore, you can't buy used games for it, you have to give up your UMDs you currently own, you have to buy another type of memory stick, and it would be extremely hard to play imported games on them also.
The first models of the psp are just as good. A hard drive and bluetooth capability may not come standard, but it can still perform the same basic functions. I say go for it. You won't regret it. You can always take it back if you don't like it. 8)
