It\'s 3 hours for anything which requires constant spinning of the disc, which may/will include games.

It all depends on the developers of the games to use the systems RAM efficiently so that it isn\'t constantly reading from the disc. In which case it will last up to a maximum of about 8 hours.

Though, when I play handhelds, I often turn my sound off.. so perhaps that\'ll make it last even longer.

When is this sucka coming out, 2005? Sooner? I hope sooner.

Nothing set in stone as far as I know..

The estimated release dates are:
For Japan: End of 2004
USA: Q1 2005
Europe: Q4 2008 *

EDIT: Ah, here we go..

Sony has informed publishers, developers and retailers that while it still plans to launch its handheld gaming and entertainment device in Japan this holiday season, the PSP will not hit shelves in North America or Europe until calendar year 2005.    

"The reason we pushed it out here is we wanted to be sure there\'s a reasonable amount of software titles to launch with hardware," said Teresa Weaver, a spokesperson for Sony Computer Entertainment.    

The system will ship globally before the end of Sony\'s fiscal year (which ends in March 2005).

What I don\'t get is they tie Australia\'s release dates with Europe\'s. We\'re the closest damn country to Japan, but the US gets it before us. MOOOOOO!!!!!

How about you read

the PSP will not hit shelves in North America or Europe until calendar year 2005.

If aus. is tied with europe then it comes close to the same time.

We just have a higher priority.
