Was thinking of importing a PSP, is it region locked? Where would you advise? What sort of price? etc.

Luckily sony have included a universal charger for all PSPs. you just need a figure8 lead to plug into it and you'll be fine.

And everyone has a figure8 plug somewhere around the house!

No, the US version are all under Pre-Order! If you want one order a US version quickly as it does get you- as pointed out- a free UMD Movie of Spider Man 2.

Yes, Sony have confirmed that the movies will be region locked on UMD, but the Games will be Region free.

Don't forget you'll need to buy a voltage + socket converter so you can charge it over here on UK plugs.

It says the american one is not out yet? So you dont actually have it yet?

Sounds good, one thing which slighlty worries me is the movie thing, as i do watch a lot of films. Will there be a region unlock thing do you think or know?

Good idea.

For games? No.
For movies? Yes.

Importmadness.com. free FedEx 2 day shipping with purchase of Airmail, and cheapest prices at the moment.

I preordered my US PSP Value Pack with 3 games and a car charger/battery pack/UMD cases pack all for £250 plus postage.
Also, the first Million US PSPs come with a free UMD version of spider-Man 2 the Movie.
