PSP no longer showing promise?

[James]

Goaty, it just sounds like you're taking VERY early speculation of the PSP, and comparing it to essentially nothing. You're not comparing it to the promise the DS might have, yet you're ready to claim that just because you THINK certain things are true about the PSP, then the DS is much better.

How much is the DS? What will the DS present that couldn't already be done on the Gamecube (with or without the GBA connectivity Nintendo was so high on, and then fizzled out)? How long is the battery life of the DS? What makes the DS so "revolutionary," when it hasn't even been out and given time to prove itself?
