Why would i need a PSP when i have a PS2 with all the same games sitting about 10 feet away, it all seems very pointless save for long trips and its just nor worth the money for limited usage like that.

If you have a psp and a pretty large memory stick, or lots of money to use on good games, and you have many long trips ahead of you, then yes, it's worth it..

My psp before I got a large memory stick, was about the same as my membership at the gym, unused.. Now, I *cough*dled*cough* a few games from different places (all legal, of course), and when I get to try all the games I want, then it's fun...

But the psp in general is really just a waste of money...

Any ideas if a new version will be coming out anytime soon? I heard rumours of a 50gb internal HD version for 2006? Am thinking of getting one for xmas but depends if anything new will be coming out soonish

Are they mad?! 50gb?

Fairly easily done - take a look at the ipod. SOny just have to spread that across the whole back of the psp and job done, it won't really be much thicker hopefully. Its undoubtedly gonna happen sometime in the next few years, but will it happen next year?

My initial thoughts are no, with the release of the ps3 n everything?

I read somewhere that the Nintendo DS sells more than the PSP.
