Another thing which made me go for US rather than Jap, was the Movie feature. I won't mind buying US UMD movies as they will no doubt be better/out sooner than the UK counterparts. And there's no chance of my movies being dubbed in Japanese :D

I honestly don't know if it'll some with the Samsung gear. All I do know, is that around 99% of US and Euro PSP's will have the new technology in.

I'm just crossing my fingers really!

If I'm lucky though, I'll have a better, dead-pixel-free screen and improved battery life.

and copied games could ruin your laser in the PS2.

dont know if the magic disk would work though, had no luck with DVD region X with my ps2, perhaps the coding is better in the new one.

whist I've got your attention Bullett (we need a pm function)

this PSP you've ordered from IM, do you know if its got the new samsung screen and chips?
do you know much about the new components?
I've had a second chance offer on ebay, for a japanese one, with no dead pixels or anything, for £200 delivered (not a value pack)

I keep going to IM adding it to my basket, then removing it having my doubts, (plus I get confused with the delivery options and insurance)

UK Google for 'Magic Switch'.

It's a system of 3 bits of plastic that fit in the drive bay, allowing magic-swapping to go on. You also need the Swap magic v3.3 discs, otherwise it won't work.

Most places go for around £25-30 for the set. Haven't bought one myself yet as I may be getting rid of my PS2.

And don't play copied games, that's the most retarded thing you can do as a gamer.
