"NDS or PSP - Which will you get???"

The Nintendo DS and PlayStation Portable are coming out soon, so which will you get. I've decided on the DS because of it's great featres; Touch screen, voice activation, PictoChat, wireless multiplayer gameplay etc. The PSP may have slightly better graphics but I, personaly, don't think it's as good. So what do you think?

If it does turn out to be a mic, they'll just come out with something like "It's not a microphone, it's a state-of-the-art voice recognition unit".

I'm really clueless as to what it could be. So I'll ask again - pics anyone?

If it was for a microphone why wouldn't they just say it was for a microphone?

It sounds like some Nintendo representitive trying to get 15 minutes of fame.

IGN think it's a microphone.

Anyone got a link to see this 'port'? I want to see.

But it's hardly a secret that there's a microphone, and this port has an unannounced secret function.

Yeah but surly that could encounter some problems that an external microphone could correct.

I thought the microphone was integrated?

Microphone?

Ow, my eye.

Anyhoo
The PSP's multimedia functions will be neat but I'm sure someone will make a video/mp3 player for the DS - There's one for the GBA which will probably work for it anyway.

I prefer the DS's design to the PSP's - the screen will get scratched if you don't keep it in a case.

Also the idea of online Animal Crossing/Mario Kart paired with the fact that my area will be able to receive broadband around the time the DS is launched.

And what's that mystery port at the botton of the DS for?
