its cool that they lowered the price. maybe now i can buy a second psp so i can fully upgrade it to enjoy newer games.

there's 2 prices for the canadian market one is $199 and the other one is $299 which one is correct.

I think the 199 is the US price.

^ yup 199 for US

It good for sony that thay have dropt the prizes because they will sell more.

i think this is great.. more people will be getting psp, so sony will put more in to it

though I wouldn't give up the year I've had with my PSP... saving $50 would have been nice... oh well
