I got the newest psp, and here's my final word on it. The newest version of sony psp is incredible as in feel and performise. The new psp comes with rachet and clank size matter, and well it's kinda strange the screen i heard look terrible, but after poping in god of war and maverick hunder X ( capcom please make a Maverick hunter X 2 Please), I got to say that it's worth it desite the screen issue witch is not that noticeable, and it didn't throw me off of my gameplay session so far, and the best part that it the biggest complaint on the net. I took a good close look at the screen, and all i got to say is. There's more pixels in this model compare to last, and the games look great, though it does has it issue so it a ok screen. The bottons are better than the 2000, and the mettle finish make this model look great and hold in your hands feal well. The console seem lighter to. So take my word on it, phat users need this upgrade to this, and it comes with a mic bulit in for skpe calls and online gameplay. My advice is simple as this. find someone with this model and test it out right before you buy, because this screen may turn you off, but for me who has been though the last two model now. I'am just glade to have something else beside my ps3 to play with, and what perfect than a portable console like the psp that connect good to my console viva playstation 3.
